Never Have I Ever

14 Jun - 06 Jul

Heath Ledger Theatre

An explosive and savagely funny play that brilliantly skewers the contradictions of contemporary society and the shifting sands of power and sexual politics.

  • “A SALTY, VOLATILE CROSS BETWEEN INDECENT PROPOSAL AND A SATANIC EDITION OF COME DINE WITH ME.”

    Sunday Times

  • “A DRAMA THAT WILL SEND YOU OUT INTO THE NIGHT, ARGUING AND LAUGHING.”

    The Times

Never Have I Ever

FRIENDSHIPS, SECRETS, AND A GAME THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING

Jacq and Kas’s boutique restaurant has gone bust. Tonight, they’re hosting their oldest friends for one final dinner to break the news that their investment is now toast.

And that’s just the start of their evening…

Cash, class, identity, and infidelity are all on the menu. As the last of the expensive wine flows, a dangerous drinking game sparks confessions and provokes an unspeakable dare that could forever change the dynamics of the group.

This explosive and savagely funny debut play by Deborah Frances-White, comedian, screenwriter, and host of the global hit podcast The Guilty Feminist, brilliantly skewers the contradictions of contemporary society and the shifting sands of power and sexual politics.
