According to director TK "'Shopping and F*cking" is a bold social commentary on our society, as people become more detached emotionally while still maintaining physical contact---interactions that are sexual but not personal, "transactions." It presents the notion that people are beginning to live life in the fictional stories that they tell themselves; stories with happy endings and contrived characters; stories that shield them from the pain of the real world."
Though shocking and brash, this play is a dark and dramatic comedy, featuring 5 characters, each of them trapped in their own world, detached from the others yet unable to cope without them. It is raw, sexually graphic and not for the faint of heart, yet open to anyone who can see beyond the shock, anyone who is willing to truly examine the nasty side of our consumerist society.
