The Inebriated is a one act play about a group of friends who've been mates for so long, they might begin to wonder why they're even friends. Like all groups there are characters. There's Edgar, the gorgeous, egotistical male specimen who thinks the world is the oyster he can squash with his foot. There's the down-to-earth, soulful Trish - who finally opens her eyes and realises Edgar is not the true love of her life. There's the introspective, melancholic Smith - who refuses to open his eyes and continues to pine after Trish. Who can forget Albee - the one living not on Mars, but maybe Jupiter? The play follows one particular debaucherous night, a night where copious amounts of alcohol lead to nothing but chaos. The play does not promise a PG rating.
This is a story about a woman's search to find herself within a group of immature, obsessed men. It's a story about that particular brand of camaraderie, which has lasted so long - you no longer remember why you're friends. And lastly it's about unrequited love, sticking to your guns and general, unresolved confusion.
