Sex for the Reluctant — Teatr Nowy im. K. Dejmka w Łodzi, Łódź

Alice and Henry, a couple in their fifties, escape to an exclusive hotel to revitalize their marriage and break free from everyday routine. Armed with a guidebook, they search for ways to add spice to their relationship — but each of them brilliantly sabotages the romantic moments of passion. She expects a charming and daring man who would surprise her with flowers. He simply craves peace and quiet and a smile on his wife's face.

A witty comedy with an unexpected twist by Michele Rimla, translated by Hanna Szczerkowska. Directed by Paweł Pitera. Set design by Allan Starski. Costumes by Wiesława Starska. Choreography by Edyta Wasłowska. Music arrangement by Maria Waśkiewicz.

Starring Maria Gładkowska (Alice Lane) and Wojciech Wysocki (Henry Lane).
