Filthy, funny, shocking and sometimes tender, this collaboration between puppets and the National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles creates a safe space to get down and dirty and talk about sex. Not so much the “birds and bees”, more the “nuts and bolts”.★★★★ “Inventive, silly and visually arresting comedy … with moments of real, heartfelt tenderness.” The Stage
★★★★ “You will leave the theatre with a goofy smile wondering what the hell you have just witnessed, but eager for more” Fairy Powered Productions
★★★★ “Uproariously funny” Plays to See
★★★★★ “Is it too early to start talking about the best shows of the year?” Broadway World

Positive about disabled people
There is ground level access to all areas of the theatre and there is an accessible toilet. For most productions, row A is at the same level as the playing space, and each row behind it is one additional step up. There are two wheelchair spaces available in each auditorium in the front row, which are bookable online. If you cannot see a vacant wheelchair space on the seating plan for your preferred performance, please contact the box office. If you will be transferring out of your wheelchair into a theatre seat then we advise booking a seat in the front row at either standard or concession rate. Our front of house staff will take care of your wheelchair in the bar area. Seating in The Little theatre at Southwark Playhouse Borough is unallocated however if you would like to reserve a specific seat due to access requirements, contact the box office. Assistance dogs are welcome in the theatres. We recommend booking or requesting an aisle seat, or alternatively our staff are happy to dog-sit for you.
