About the show
CIRCLE is a comedy performed at Space 1 at Edinburgh Festival Fringe, presented by JMTC Theatre. Two actors play eight interconnected characters in a fast, funny daisy chain of sexual encounters. A country music star, an exchange student, a cybersex novice, an estranged husband, an S&M submissive, a frat boy and a lesbian bestie collide in a witty, provocative exploration of sex, power, intimacy and the universal longing for human connection. Bold, timely and sharply observed, CIRCLE turns desire into a revealing and hilarious map of modern relationships.
