THOTS & PRAYERS
by Ajahnis Charley, in association with The Theatre Centre
‘Thot.’ Noun, informal. Definition: a person who has had many sexual encounters— the exact opposite from the kind of nerdy gaymer Daniel is. But at a dance party where he attempts a death drop… He literally dies.
When he awakens at the gates of Gay Heaven, a mighty, flighty and problematically white-y God reveals that he does not have enough ‘Homo Points’ to enter. So, in a series of sketches, the little twink relives the gayest age, 22, to manufacture new moments and prove that he belongs. THOTS & PRAYERS is a solo sketch comedy show by Ajahnis Charley about giving life in the afterlife, and the wicked ways white gays rule over queer culture.
