Presented by Deadly Entertainment •

This One Act Play follows a young woman by the name of Chelsea. She has recently done something that is considered by many to be a great sin. Trying her best to keep her recent action a secret. In her home, Chelsea must negotiate her way through a series of loving, nasty and politically charged reactions from her older sister Lisa, her sister-in-law Jess and her roommate Kim.

Soup is an exploration of an issue considered by many to be greatly divisive and sensitive. The play uses the twist of an all-male cast to represent our female characters. This gender bending of the characters aims to highlight how in today’s world, an issue that is important and very personal is still handled and controlled by people who will never have to consider their own health when it comes to this issue. “Because Men are the only ones with the right to talk about Women’s bodies.”

This show contains course language and sexual references, recommended only for Ages 16+
