THE STORY: Nigel loves his hedonistic lifestyle - he has a long-term boyfriend, goes clubbing and has lots of sex in their open relationship. Jamie, his partner of ten years, isn't sure things are so great
The night before Gay Pride Day, the couple make contact with a stranger on the Internet, a mysterious young man who seems too good to be true. They make plans for a night of casual sex, but their young guest has a very different agenda
BLOWING WHISTLES is a searing, topical drama about love, sex and identity that transcends sexuality to resonate with anyone who has ever tried to maintain a long-term relationship.
"Brilliant
so fantastically tough and tender that it often feels as if someone has got you in a painful arm-lock, only to give you the sweetest, softest kiss." - Times (London). "It's about love, actually. The fact that it's a homosexual and not heterosexual relationship doesn't make it any less dramatic or moving." - Croydon Advertiser (London). "The first half of BLOWING WHISTLES is sharp and funny, bristling with snappy one-liners and insightful digs at contemporary gay culture
a funny, sexy and ultimately thought-provoking experience." - rainbownetwork.com (London). "I was blown away. This is possibly the most moving and engrossing gay play since Beautiful Thing." - Boyz (London). "Full marks
a refreshingly comic take on being gay and romantic." - Daily Telegraph (London). "Razor sharp
it cries out for a West End transfer." - QX (London).
