S. Asher Gelman’s international hit Afterglow is running at Southwark Playhouse Borough until 10 February 2024. Gelman himself directs this new 2024 production.

“Sexy and sensual…Gelman gives each of his characters complexity and contradictions that make them real.” – Broadway World 

Afterglow is a funny, raw, and sensual exploration of polyamory, commitment, and modern love. The show tells the story of Alex and Josh who are married but in an open relationship. A new and intimate connection is ignited when they invite Darius to share their bed for the night. As all three men come to terms with their definitions of love, loyalty, and trust, relationships are challenged, and futures are shaken.

“One of the most gorgeous productions I’ve seen.” – Stage Screen LA
