Ethan is a hot young 20's writer whose online journals of "sexcapades" are the buzz of the blogosphere. Olivia is an attractive 30-something whose own writing career never took off. Attraction turns to sex when star sex blogger Ethan tracks down his idol, the gifted but obscure novelist Olivia. They find they each crave what the other possesses, but must confront the dark side of ambition and the trouble of reinventing oneself when the past is only a click away.
They hook up, sex turns into dating and dating into something more complicated. A break-out-hit at Steppenwolf (2011), Sex With Strangers explores what happens when our online and offline identities intersect.
Can love survive the Internet? Can art? Can we? While not offering easy answers, Sex With Strangers is a timely and engaging examination of these questions.
