  • Project Details
    Casting "Pup Play: A Queer Pseudo-Lecture (Of Sorts)." Synopsis: Colchester Fringe has long invited the leading professors and academics throughout the U.K. to give workshops to our diverse audience. However, a certain... err... queer mix-up has occurred and Professor Handler David has been invited to explain the kink of Pup Play through his system of Y.E.L.P.S. Things quickly turn chaotic. Through homonormative puppet shows, musical numbers, extended erotic dance sequences, audience participation, and lots of gay sex, David must figure out to what extent he can find happiness through pup play.
