Cringe

Pure homo-erotic, gender sensitive fun. Your granny might recognise the scenes from the sixties. You will know the scenes from 2012. Knowingly naughty, the play lovingly pokes fun at sci-fi fan fiction. (It's not (all) porn). The Captain and the Professor are characters from a classic TV series at the mercy of female fan writers. From the repression of the past to the continuing fear of same sex relationships, this proves how ridiculous those worries are. And provides a bunch of laughs in the process. The actors embrace their stories with enthusiasm and this feeling envelops the audience.
