Hey all! My friend Whitney and I are interns at a theatre company and we need to compile a list of scenes that are very intimate, have kissing or sex in them. They can be between men/women, men/men or women/women.
What do you think is the most sexually charged scene in a play you've read? Any ideas?
Thanks!
If the production gets it right, a lot of Stanley and Stella's scenes in A Streetcar Named Desire are very sexually charged.
Hell, a lot of Stan/Blanche scenes are too, for that matter.
And then of course there's Maggie the Cat. Tennessee Williams was the master.
I haven't read it in a long time but doesn't SEXUAL PERVERSITY IN CHICAGO feature some?
Equus? It's told in retrospect and basically acted out in the characters mind, but there is nudity and simulated sex.
RED LIGHT WINTER and SAVED both have onstage sex. KILLER JOE has nudity and the most bizarre blow job scene involving chicken leg. BUG also has full nudity.
KILLER JOE ISA brilliant play. I'd give anything to have seen Michelle Williams in the original off broadway cast.
And then there's Wedekind's SPRING AWAKENING which has a rape-ish scene, two boys kissing, and group J.O.
Les liasons dangerouse (sp!) has a rape scene and a "letter writing" scene that are quite intimate.
Our new play called Don't Ask Don't tell has a sex scene between a male and trasgendered woman
