Candy

Do you believe in love at first sight? Will didnt. It was just something people said to sound romantic at weddings and that. Though hed not felt it himself, he was pretty sure love itself was a thing, it just wasnt, you know, the Cupids-arrow/heart-eyes kind of love. He didnt even think he was missing out on anything; he was happy with his lot a decent job, a good group of mates to get plastered with every weekend even living with his mum and Great Aunt Toadface wasnt that bad, really. He was fine. Until he sees Candy. One look at her and his whole world turns upside down. And no, Candys not her real name. Candy is his old schoolmate, dressed to the nines in thoroughly convincing drag. But to Will, shes another person entirely. An epiphany. A revelation. A woman. Candy tells the story of Will as he attempts to make sense of his newfound feelings, and everything he thought he knew about himself is brought into question. Its a one-man comedy-drama about identity, masculinity, mental health, sexuality and, most importantly, love.
