About this event
A play about sex, heartbreak… and toilets. He has a girlfriend, he’s looking for work… and he spends his free time cruising in men’s toilets. An intimate and unflinching look at the pleasures and pains of desire, Close Enough to Touch examines the line between our public and private selves, our impulses and appetites, our secrets and salvations. Henry Roberts ’ play explores hidden desires and secret shames, and asks how long we can keep a secret before the world catches up. Presented by Red Ladder and Silent Uproar .

This venue’s world
This venue sits in the collection, not this one title.
Traditions this room works in
Tags on the venue. Other Manchester rooms carry the same lineage. Not a claim that this film invented the tradition.
Also playing this week
Same kind of night (theatre) in Manchester. Spread across the week, not a ranking.
A different kind of night
Same city and close on taste. A different discipline, on purpose.
