[NoHo Arts District, CA] – Roy Sekoff’s solo show Inherit the Smut comes to Whitefire Theatre’s Solofest one night only on Friday, February 10 at 8pm.
Inherit the Smut is an uproarious testament to Huffington Post Founding Editor Roy Sekoff’s unwavering commitment to overshare, as he plumbs his past — particularly his overstimulated teen years — for laughs and insights into his relationship with his larger-than-life parents.
Sekoff’s frank and fearless tales about navigating the minefield of male adolescence (including the discovery of his father’s sizable collection of X-rated movies) and his equally combustible adulthood (including having to dispose of that collection after his father dies) allow him to explore the ridiculous nature of young lust, Oedipal anxieties, and raising his own kids in the age of one-click-away Internet porn.
If David Sedaris, Chelsea Handler, Larry David, and Whoopi Goldberg had the unlikeliest orgy in history, the resulting love child might one day create a show like Inherit the Smut.
