Eight Gigabytes Of Hardcore Pornography
by Declan Greene

A guy stuck in a rut. No matter how much porn he downloads, it’s just not enough. A woman in trouble. No matter how much debt she’s in, she just can’t stop buying stuff. When you need escape, no-strings sex via OKCupid.com might be a very good idea. But it might not.

A dark comedy about love, lust and hard drives.

Eight-Gigabytes of Hardcore Pornography won the Max Afford Playwrights Award and was developed by Playwriting Australia at the 2012 National Script Workshop.

Directed by Sophie Roberts

CAST:  Dena Kennedy and Kevin Keys

The reading is part of Playmarket’s Under Construction: New Work Development Season, Auckland July 18-20 2013.

In association with THE EDGE, Q Theatre, The Basement Creative New Zealand, ASB Community Trust, and Playwriting Australia.
