STOP THE HEART

Don’t talk to strangers or you might fall in love… with a Trump supporter. This Japan-set love affair questions the politics of pleasure and ethics of loving someone with misaligning values. Laura Goodlet directs Fletcher Scully in a poignantly conflicted solo performance as Hart, who meets [Redacted] in the rainy streets of Tokyo and eagerly enters into a sexually explicit holiday romance. Once he finds out [Redacted]’s political affiliation, Hart must decide whether to follow his head or ask himself if he can stop the heart. Are people really all good or all bad? Can he sacrifice his morals for the one he loves? Expect raves, sex and a few tears in this electric one-man show.

World Premiere at Sydney Fringe Festival Queer Hub at The Substation, Qtopia on Oxford St — September 2nd-6th, 6pm.
Melbourne Fringe Festival this October.
