Book Synopsis

A sharp comedy about power games and privacy in the media and beyond.

Carrie's getting them out for the lads, Charlotte's just grateful to have a job, Sam's being asked to sell more than his body, and Aidan's trying to keep his magazine from going under. Set in the cut-throat media world, Lucy Kirkwood's comedy exposes power games and privacy in the age of Photoshop.

[NSFW = Not Safe For Work, online material which the viewer may not want to be seen accessing in a public or formal setting such as at work.]

Lucy Kirkwood's play NSFW was premiered at the Royal Court Theatre, London, in 2012.
