Description
No internet. No intruders. No clothes. Far from the trappings of civilisation, a group of nudist baby boomers have created their very own off-grid bush eco-paradise. An unseasonably hot summer approaches, but no worries! They've got enough preserves, pickles and psychedelic rock to get them through it - probably. Enter Evangeline - chronically online Gen Z eco-warrior, on the run from something terrible. She's loud. She's over-sensitive. And she wants to stay. Set in a time of unforgiving drought, with hot winds foretelling worse times ahead, an all-nude, all-legendary cast takes you on an hilarious journey of hope and delusion in the face of disaster. Playwright Ang Collins (Blueberry Play, Spewy) makes her mainstage debut with a work of glittering comic absurdity. Teaming up with Artistic Director Declan Greene (The Lewis Trilogy, Sex Magick),Naturism takes an irreverent and deeply messy look at just how much heat our squishy, naked little bodies can take.
