Obsidian Art Space and Theater LaB Houston join forces to produce the Southwest premiere of Cock. Michael Bartlett’s comedy/drama features a cast of three men (John and two others known simply as M and F) and a woman (W). A gay couple, John and M, are on a break from their relationship when John meets W and finds himself falling in love. The situation throws the trio into crisis. Cock examines today’s need for complete honesty in intimate relationships, a practice that not only fosters confidence and trust but also provides each partner with well-marked emotional targets during any conflict. Adult audiences only.
