THE STORY: THE PERFORMERS is a romantic comedy about two high-school friends - and the women in their lives - who reconnect at the Adult Film Awards in Las Vegas. When the night takes an unexpected turn and relationships are threatened, Chuck Wood, the hardest-working man in the business, steps in to lend a hand. Sex, romance and Barry Manilow intersect in this comedy about the ups and downs and ins and outs of love.
"THE PERFORMERS is like an early Neil Simon farce with an X-rated vocabulary." - NY Times. "How has there never been a stage show about what happens at the Adult Film Awards? A send-up of porn stars and their pals, THE PERFORMERS is totally profane and exhaustingly funny." - Entertainment Weekly. "That THE PERFORMERS often delights us, silly as the show can be, is a testament to Read's skillful way with a well-timed (if vulgar) remark - even when it seems mostly designed to shock the audience - and his gift for creating physical comedy." , - TheaterMania.com. "The funny thing is that the show has a pure heart and a traditional feel-good message despite the waving of adult toys, simulated sex acts and language that would trigger a seizure in a network censor. Read has somehow found sweetness in porn." - Associated Press.
