FREE Play Reading at The Commons in Provincetown with an original reading by Racine Oxtoby’s How Do You Like Your Love? A new play set during the height of the 1970s “porno chic” era
In 1972, as adult films began crossing into mainstream theaters, one small-town cinema takes a bold leap and screens the controversial film Deep Throat. What follows is a night of chaos, comedy, and culture clash.
How Do You Like Your Love? follows four employees of the Rialto Cinema — the projectionist, the owner, the box office manager, and the new kid — on the night of the film’s premiere. As they navigate flustered town officials, outspoken protesters, a packed and rowdy audience, and their own personal tensions, they’re forced to confront a changing cultural landscape.
Will the town reject this new craze as a passing fad? Or will they demand more?
