    'Sex to change the course of the world' reads the ad Jules (a male marine biologist) placed for a casual hookup. But when Jo (a female journalism student) shows up at his small subterranean biology lab, there's nothing casual whatsoever about this particular evening. Surrounded by cabinets full of bourbon, a lifetime supply of tampons and only a tank of fish for company, they're in for one hell of a blind date. Will meaningless sex have meaning? What's going on in the fish tank? And who is that woman, Barbara, pulling levers in the corner? In this apocalyptic sci-fi fantasy, something big is about to explode. Tonight.

        I was in the same audience as the alleged REVIEWER and the show did not start anywhere NEAR 45 minutes late. They held for about 15 minutes - 8:15 by my watch. And we clearly saw different shows. I was one of those people in an UPROAR OF LAUGHTER. Collapse

        Show was late starting (about 45 minutes late). Problems with sound system. The show started and it seemed like a story of two people who met through a personals column. The language (even for me) seemed to be a chance just to show a lack of vocabulary skills with these two people. Turned out to be about a fish tank and the beginning of the world (do not ask). The audience was in an UPROAR OF LAUGHTER at every comment. HONEST, I NEVER LAUGHED EVEN ONCE. END OF REVIEW. Collapse
