THEATREclub Presents THE GAME at Everyman Theatre

'The Game' a thought provoking new play that explores the act of buying sex - the rules, the language and the power structures, is set to be staged at the Everyman, Tuesday 21st and Wednesday 22nd March. Devised by Gemma Collins, Grace Dyas and Lauren Larkin with Rachel Moran, Mia deFaoite and other women who have exited prostitution and women currently involved in sex work.

It's a play that's also a real-life game, with levels and consequences. Five volunteer men join the two actors onstage. These men have never played The Game before. They have no idea what they're about to do, and they won't be given a script. They are doing this to be part of an event - a symbolic act - that calls us all to consider, to think and to review. All you have to do is watch.

'The Game' gives audiences an insight into a world that sits uncomfortably beneath the surface of our day-to-day lives. How we legislate makes a statement about our values. The legal status of prostitution and sex work is a measure of our society. Laws around the world are changing. We're all affected by those changes.

Capacity for this powerful production is limited as the audience will be seated on the Everyman stage. Tickets €20, concession €18, and student tickets €9, are available from www.everymancork.com, or from the box office, phone 021 4501 673. Note: 'The Game' features graphic narrative descriptions of sex acts and graphic enactments of sex acts and sexual violence. The recommended age suitability is 18+.
