Edinburgh Festival 2009: Jane Austen's Guide to Pornography

4
Outcast Theatre

By Robert Iles - 20th Aug 2009

Jane Austen's Guide to Pornography is a wonderfully entertaining look at what would happen if Austen’s prescribed world of gentility and manners crashed into the writer’s block of a modern day pornographic playwright.

Between sex and sensibility, a charming love story emerges.

Outcast Theatre, with an emphasis on “works relevant to the gay, lesbian, bi, straight, transgender communities” has produced a show that resonates with all communities. For anyone who has ever been in love, loved Jane Austen, or enjoys a bit of porn…. This show is a must see. Entertaining, touching, funny and moving, this show deserves a transfer.
