Jerker @ Waterloo East Theatre

From the producer of F**king Men, Afterglow (2019), and Happy Ending comes Robert Chesley's JERKER, a bold two-hander, making its highly anticipated Waterloo East Theatre premiere this Autumn, 40 year after its acclaimed premier in San Francisco. JERKER is a daring and seductive two-person drama about two strangers who connect through a series of late-night phone calls. What begins as anonymous fantasy quickly sparks into something deeper. Hidden from each others sight, the men reveal secrets, fears, and longings through nothing but their voices. Each call pulls them further into an intimate world where imagination becomes a lifeline, where the line between fantasy and genuine connection begins to blur, raising the question of who they really are to one another. By turns playful, provocative, and unexpectedly tender, the play explores how intimacy can grow in isolation. Its a steamy, suspenseful journey into desire, vulnerability, and the power of being heard. 18+ Contains strong language. Descriptive language of a sexual nature and nudity.
