Google Cognitive Behavioural Theatre / PBH's Free FringeAbout the show
Sex, Drugs and Conscious Souls is a free theatre show from Cognitive Behavioural Theatre, performed at The Street as part of PBH's Free Fringe. A married, conservative protestant pastor and a pansexual, polyamorous, neurodiverse artist offering tantric massage on an escort website meet — and three years later they've written a show about their unlikely love story. Built on polyamorous thrupples, magic truffles and the bursting of religious bubbles, this true story tackles society's stigmas around sex, drugs and new age consciousness. Strictly for adults aged 18 and over; the show runs for 55 minutes.
Why see this show?
A genuinely unlikely true story told by the two people who lived it. Refreshingly candid about faith, neurodiversity and desire, this is a show that earns its provocative title rather than hiding behind it.
