In their daring debut at the Edinburgh Fringe, Glossy Pain take the audience to bed. How can we be vulnerable with each other, when the world around us demands us to be hard? Creating a space of intimacy, this is a provocative exploration of sexual desires and the lies that shape them. Teasing and tormenting both herself and the audience, Riah Knight questions the authenticity of performance, seeking answers from religious and mythical figures with humour and introspection. Featuring original music, this English-language solo promises to ignite discussion. Come lie with us!
