In The Next Room or The Vibrator Play

St James Theatre (November 2013 – Jan 2014)


Late 19th Century New York State. A time of great innovation and social change. Whilst enthusiasm grows amongst the well-to-do for the new electric light bulb, Dr Givings has been working on his own strange electrical device.

IN THE NEXT ROOM or the vibrator play is a provocative, touching and entertaining story about sex and intimacy.
