Dirty Energy
“A third glass of wine, town, bars, drugs, home, sleep for however many hours I can before I wake up and do it all again.
Hours on feet: 12 - 14 on average.
Hours sleeping: 5 - 6 on average.
Hours drinking: 2 - 4 on average.
Abuse: 50% of the customers I serve.
Pay: minimum wage.
Why do I do it: absolutely no f*cking clue.”
'Dirty Energy' delves into the brutal world of the hospitality industry through the lives of Bast, Avi, and Clay. Set in a modern dining restaurant that masks its toxicity with casual elegance, the play reveals the harsh realities of the industry. Overworked, underpaid, overtired on minimum wage - the crew use alcohol, drugs, banter and each other to survive.
