Ace, a lifelong Doctor Who fan, has always led a rather sheltered life but tonight, everything changes. Her school crush, Sasha, has invited her out to a nightclub.
Sadly, Ace has never been clubbing before, so she arrives 15 minutes before the club. On time is late, after all. As the club slowly fills with people, Ace has to wait in this hostile new environment for Sasha to arrive. All the while she tries to determine whether her feelings for Sasha are romantic or platonic and discovers how prominent the focus on sex in society really is.
Is it love? Is it friendship? What’s the difference?
‘That’s Ace’ explores asexuality, attraction and the feeling of living outside of societal norms.
⭑⭑⭑⭑“Brace gives a profound insight into the doubts and tribulations of growing up with platonic feelings and sexual confusion in a heartwarming, touching coming-of-age story." - Broadway World
What started as an innocent project to help a friend became an inspiring and under-represented narrative. Th epiece was written from an urge to see stories about asexuality be showcased an dpresented. It's first professional debut began at The Vault Festival in 2023, before then heading over to the kind's Head Theatre for one week as part of Tom Ratcliffe's 'A Queer Interrogation' Season (2024).
‘This is an accomplished and clever piece of theatre, where you don’t need the cultural references to enjoy it. Making at least six invisible characters real through strong writing and staging makes That’s Ace stand out.’ - LOUREVIEWS
