Rope Running Out is the world premiere of a new play by Raf_Antonio (Playwright's Guild of Canada's RBC Emerging Playwright Award winner, 2015) in the lemonTree {studio} at King & Bathurst.
The ties of Nacio and Félix's love have begun to fray. Evolution is necessary for their non-physical sexual partnership - but something holds Nacio back. When a footloose drifter from his past appears, Nacio must make a decision: stay bound to the world he knows or let go completely.
In this sexy, intimate, and unflinching new work award-winning playwright Raf Antonio explores the power of the erotic and asks the question, 'if we are multidimensional, can any one person truly be enough?'
This production marks the first time lemonTree will produce a show inside our downtown {studio} space at King and Bathurst.
Rope Running Out was initially developed at the Soulpepper Playwrights Circle 2015 and subsequently developed at Cahoots Theatre's Hot House Creators Unit 2015-2016. Raf Antonio acknowledges the support of the Toronto Arts Council through their Grants to Individual Playwrights 2016.
