THE CLIMAX IS JUST THE BEGINNING
S. Asher Gelman's international hit play Afterglow is heading to Melbourne for its highly anticipated Australian premiere!
When Josh and Alex, a married couple in an open relationship, invite Darius to share their bed for a night, a new and intimate connection is ignited. As all three men come to terms with their individual definitions of love, loyalty and trust – relationships are challenged and futures are shaken. A raw, funny and sensual exploration of polyamory, commitment and modern love.
After its critical success Off-Broadway and productions around the globe, Afterglow now brings its modern, intimate exploration of desire, honesty and connection to Melbourne audiences!
