COCK

by Mike Bartlett

What happens when the life you thought you wanted collides with the possibility of something entirely different?

John has spent years in a relationship with a man who knows him, loves him, and expects a future with him. But when a chance encounter with a woman turns his world upside down, John finds himself caught between two people, two possible futures, and a question he can no longer avoid: who is he, really?

Sharp, provocative, and wickedly funny, Cock is a battle of desire, identity, and the stories we tell ourselves about who we are. As attraction becomes confusion and love gives way to competition, what begins as a personal dilemma spirals into an increasingly volatile collision of egos, expectations, and emotional truths.

With razor-sharp dialogue and humour that can turn on a dime, Mike Bartlett exposes the absurdity of our need for certainty in matters of the heart. Because sometimes, the hardest choice isn't between two people. It's between who you've always believed yourself to be and who you might become.
