Lane (short brown hair, piercing blue eyes), staring lustfully at Sam (brown eyes, drawn on beard)'s bare chest in front of a coral toned sunset backdrop. Lane wears a pink V-neck tee with dangly star earrings, and Sam wears an open button-up blue top and brown cowboy hat.

Virgins and Cowboys

Welcome to the digital rodeo — where desire’s a glitch, purity’s a currency, and everyone’s one bad DM away from an existential crisis. Virgins and Cowboys is a chaotic, sexy-sad comedy where five lost souls scroll, swipe, and spiral through the burning wreckage of connection in the internet age. It’s part fever dream, part group chat meltdown: a fast-food love story for the attention economy. Strap in - cause the patriarchy’s on fire. Yeehaw baby!

Playwright Morgan Rose's darkly comedic social commentary is brought to life by the graduating actors of Flinders University Drama Centre, South Australia's leading centre for actor and director training.
