KXT x NIDA
A series of three staged plays at KXT Broadway showcasing the work of recent MFA Dramatic Writing alum as they build their profile and transition to professional careers
Neurotic erotica writer Chastity Onan's worst fear comes true when she accidentally send her twisted writing out to all 172 of her email contacts. Now everyone knows the dirty truth about her: she's a pervert.
Making matters worse, Chastity is suddenly stalked by the physical manifestations of her shoulder angel and devil, Humanita and Fuckeduppe, who pop into her world to judge her life choices. Chastity fumbles through "therapist-daddy issues" targeted toward her psych, Dr Priapic, lands a promotion writing horny greeting cards, and becomes fixated on befriending her ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend, Salty Mills, the only person who refuses to read the erotica.
As her guilt turns into utter chaos, Chastity Onan is forced to stop deflecting and confront her crazy behaviour. 'Everyone Knows I'm A Pervert' is an irreverent comedy by Taylor Fernandez about sex, OCD, and guilt—and how our neuroses can spiral when we believe everything is our fault.
