Highlights
Why we like it
"Elaine May's 'Adult Entertainment' offers a sharp, comedic lens on the complexities of adult relationships and the human experience."
From: Adult Content Plays for Mature AudiencesSynopsis
There is a cloud over porn queen Heidi the Hos usually cheery cable TV show.
Her guests are wearing armbands to mourn the passing of their employer and mentor a legendary porn filmmaker.
Tired of working for others this motley group of adult video veterans decides to write and shoot their own extravaganza an 'art' film.
The script doesnt live up to their expectations so they bring in a new writer one who insists they read the classics to prepare for their roles.
Unexpected ideas develop as the hilarity escalates bringing the play to a raucous and riotous conclusion.
