2000s: A tale of sexual passion and lost innocence
2000s: A tale of sexual passion and lost innocence
An eighteen-year-old Irish girl arrives in London to study drama and falls violently in love with an older actor. This older man has a disturbing past that the young girl is unprepared for. The young girl has a troubling past of her own. This is her story and their story.
The Lesser Bohemians is about sexual passion. It is about innocence and the loss of it. At once epic and exquisitely intimate, it is a celebration of the dark and the light in love.
If you thought Soho was the ‘fun’ part of London, be prepared for this and more. A tour of the seedy underbelly of the city via one grotty bedsit to another and one drug-fuelled party after another in chaotic sentences where the words appear as jumbled as the minds of those at one of the parties.
