BUYSEXUAL is a witty five-Act dramedy about sex and where to get it.
Written by Ottawa playwright Andrew Riddles. It asks the question: Is it better to want more, or be happy with what you have?
It has quick wit, side-splitting laughs, paired with culturally relevant commentary on sex work, marriage, patriarchy, and the choices we make. The characters are complex and highly relatable.
The story centres around Leslie and Brian; a retired married couple who are settled in life, and perhaps have settled a little too much. Their story takes a tailspin when Brian asks a question that will shake their relationship and have the audience on the edge of their seats, wondering what will happen next.
