Un-Scripted goes scripted with ‘Sex Scandal’
What’s the fun in having your raison d’etre inscribed in your company name if you can’t thoroughly contradict it once in a while?
With “Sex Scandal: A San Francisco Comedy,” improv troupe Un-Scripted Theater Company does the seemingly unthinkable. It goes scripted, for the first time in its 16 years.
Set in present-day San Francisco, Lynne Kaufman’s play takes the #MeToo movement to an illogical extreme. Married, high-powered CEO Ellen argues that, if society considers it “unrealistic to expect a healthy, virile man, married or not, to have sex with only one woman for the rest of his life,” we should consider monogamy equally unrealistic for heterosexual women.
