Banging Denmark by Van Badham

7 - 23 March 2024
2 hours, incl. 20 min intermission
Adult $50; Concession $40; Group 4+ $40
Jake Newhouse is a pickup artist who sells seduction techniques to the lovelorn men of the internet. Ish Madigan is a feminist academic whose life's been destroyed by male internet trolls. They are natural enemies... until Jake grows desperate for a favour. He's developed a crush on a Danish librarian who's immune to his games and offers Ish $50,000 to teach him her ways of feminist-friendly persuasion. Van Badham throws a bomb at the rom-com in a badly-behaved comedy of sex, love, modern manners and ancient vanities.
