After winning the Fringe Award for Drama in 2024 with Mikvah Girls, This Is A Front is back with another bold world premiere play.

It’s time for Expiration Date, Charlie’s latest viral podcast in which she interviews former couples about the demise of their relationships… starting with her own. But when information her ex-boyfriend doesn’t want released is shared without his consent, a dangerous power struggle ensues. Playback is a tense, controversial drama about narrative control, the violence of being turned into content, and our need to replay relationships better left in the past.

CONTENT WARNING: discussion and depiction of sexual assault.
