A true-life play about friendship, heartbreak and business
enterprise... in a seaside brothel. Tessa has set up a business: a
brothel where mature women specialise in offering the 'Girlfriend
Experience', a surprisingly caring and sympathetic service. As the
women stoically strive to make a living in a competitive market,
their personal lives start to crumble. Will they ever have loving
relationships outside work and enjoy being girlfriends themselves?
The Girlfriend Experience continues the verbatim-theatre technique
Alecky Blythe developed in Come Out Eli and Cruising. The play is
created entirely from conversations recorded inside an actual
brothel, edited and replicated on stage in all their uncanny
verisimilitude. Alecky Blythe's play was first performed at the
Royal Court Theatre, London, in September 2008. The production
transferred to the Young Vic, London, in July 2009.
