'He was wandering around topless, clearly drug-f*cked, asking random guys to have sex. I took his hand and he grabbed me urgently, blue eyes intent and blazing.'

The Chemsex Monologues are the untold stories of the men and women adrift in London's chill-out scene. Porn stars, fag hags and sexual health workers collide on the streets of Soho in a whirling frenzy of pleasure and pain.

From the hard-ons to the heartbreak, Patrick Cash's play is a frank, funny and full frontal insight into one of the twenty-first century's most surprising and controversial gay subcultures.
