Sex Diary of an Infidel (1993 - Tour)

By Michael Gurr

29 September 1993 – 09 October 1993 Beckett Theatre

Playbox Theatre Company,

Commission Theatre Tour Remount

Original description:

A web of truth, lies, self-delusion and depravity, set against the backgrounds of Manila and Melbourne. Jean, an award-winning journalist, travels to the Philippines to write an expose of Australian sex tours. Blackmail and revolution were not in the original brief, but as the lives of the six infidels mesh together, there are no rules and many surprises.

The Beckett season was part of a tour that began in Perth (8-25 September). After the Beckett, the show traveled to Geelong (12-16 October), Warragul (18 October), Canberra (21-23 October), and Belvoir Street Theatre in Sydney (26 October - 7 November).
