Sex with Strangers; a play by Laura Eason, directed by Jeffry George

Presented by Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater at Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater

When twenty-something star sex blogger and memoirist Ethan tracks down his idol, the gifted but obscure fortyish novelist Olivia, he finds they each crave what the other possesses. As attraction turns to sex, and they inch closer to getting what they want, both must confront the dark side of ambition and the trouble of reinventing oneself when the past is only a click away.
