“I’m just worried because I think what I’m being turned on by is the fact that you’re imagining a stable future with me, whereas what you’re being turned on by is the potential potency of your own sperm.”
A lyrical, charged, sharply observed and genuinely erotic two-hander, After Sex follows the trajectory of a couple, told almost entirely through post-coital scenes. It’s about how the sex we have can change us: a love-song to connection, and to people’s capacity for changing each other’s lives.
Praise for Izzy and Siofra’s work:
★★★★ “What makes Baby, What Blessings work so well is the soft touch given to its sensitive subject matter by writer, Siofra Dromgoole” – Baby, What Blessings / EverythingTheatre
★★★★★ “This debut play from Three Sisters is a titanic overhaul of depictions of young adult women in secondary school & it should be seen as genre-changing…. Dromgoole’s script is a work of tightly-wound delight and heartbreak.” – Walk Swiftly and With Purpose / BroadwayBaby
★★★★★ “Theatre is alchemy…to spin gold, you need something indefinable. The reviewer can't quite explain what that is and I doubt theatremakers can either. But when it's there, you see it - and it's there in Ikaria.” – Ikaria / Broadway World
★★★★★ “To write that Dear Little Loz is an exploration of one woman’s search for love is to risk diminishing its scope, power and understanding of the human condition” – Dear Little Loz / Broadway Baby
