Brett Goldstein – Contains Scenes of an Adult Nature

Smart stand-up Brett Goldstein brings his pornography-focused new storytelling show, 'Contains Scenes of an Adult Nature', to the Soho Theatre. If you’re thinking ‘Wahey, lads!’ think again: Goldstein studied feminism at university. He’s also made his way through a hefty percentage of internet porn, but that wasn’t exactly part of the course… ‘Contains Scenes of an Adult Nature’ carefully, and thoughtfully, mixes thought provoking ideas about the increasingly sexualised world we live in with a riveting yarn. It’s an ambitious show, made all the more impressive by the amount of belly-laugh jokes that add weight to, rather than jar with, the serious themes. This is proper grown-up storytelling. Not just because of the graphic content, but because it requires mature audiences to think about sex with their heads and not with their genitals.
