Press Release
For the first time My First Time is appearing in Utah Valentine’s weekend. This is also a theatrical first for Mod a-go-go, a mid-century modern art gallery and furniture store. This play features four actors in hysterical and heartbreaking stories about first sexual experiences written by real people.
In 1998, a decade before blogging began, a website was created that allowed people to anonymously share their own true stories about their First Times. The website became an instant phenomenon as over 40,000 stories poured in from around the globe that were silly, sweet, absurd, funny, heterosexual, homosexual, shy, sexy and everything in between. These true stories and all of the unique characters in them are brought to life by four actors in this acclaimed 90 minute play from Ken Davenport, producer of Altar Boyz and creator of The Awesome 80s Prom.
Directed by Amy Allred & David Hanson, this joint production between A-Muses and Silver Summit Theatre Company features four talented actors: David Evanoff, Mia Tate, Rachel Shull, and Austin Stephenson. Limited cabaret seating is available for this intimate production, presented in Mod a-go-go’s upper gallery.
"When I first discovered this script last summer, I was instantly enamored,” says co-director, Amy Allred. “The depth of the human experience covered through these diverse light-hearted, funny, profound, and heartbreaking perspectives is something everyone can relate to. Upon reading the story with a Utah connection, I was compelled to produce this play in Salt Lake City.”
