Tough Time, Nice Time archiveTwo naked Germans sit chatting in a bath in Bangkok. Stefan is a bigoted, callous writer; Martin, a former rent-boy looking for someone to make a bestseller from his damaged life. As the conversation weaves through genocide, movies, money-boys, celebrity, murder, drugs and the art of telling stories the audience becomes privy to an intense and steamy encounter that is simultaneously deceptive, funny and disturbing - and as deep and simple as theatre can be.
