"A spunky, fast-talking, take no prisoners twosome…Wonderful, timely, and poignant." The Front Row Centre, NYC

Katie’s cheeky, brave and sensitive. Will is witty and warm with a huge heart. They’re single and maybe a little co-dependant. Together they host a podcast ‘Don’t Even Get Me Started’, where they bitch about the fact that they’re straight up done.

When they’re home together, they’re safe, they’re happy, no-one can hurt them. They have everything they need. Almost.

What happens when you put yourself out there, and try to find love as a woman or a gay man? Is their friendship enough to keep them safe?

"Mina Asfour and playwright Laura Jackson are wonderful as Will and Katie."
The Advertiser

Upcoming playwright, Laura Jackson has penned a touching and relevant two hander play called The Culture. Set in Sydney Australia, the play is a story about deep and enduring friendship, and the pitfalls… and sometimes dangers of finding love in a modern world. Audiences are welcomed into Will and Katie’s living room and into an important wider conversation. 

"This piece moves me. The Culture is not to be missed."
