About the Show

Set in the waning days of yet another artificial intelligence startup in San Francisco, this new comedy centers around tech bros who think that they know what women want, an artificially intelligent vibrator.

From the show:
A tech startup tries to solve the hardest problem known to science: the female orgasm.

What’s the hardest part of making a dent in the universe? Finding the people who want to dent it with you. Last Gasp is a new comedy set in the waning days of yet another artificial intelligence startup in San Francisco. They’ve burned down to their last few dollars of funding trying to revolutionize the technology of self pleasure. These tech bros think that they know what women want, an artificially intelligent vibrator. But they’re running out of money and out of time, so they turn to the one person who might be able to save their startup, a female investor. When an experienced executive walks into their lab, she upends their little startup and their lives forever. They furiously pivot the product, get in and out of deals, and fall in and out of love. Will they ever figure out just what it is that women want?

Disappointing, Raunchy, Intelligent, Funny, Clever

See it if An interesting idea about the Silicon valley. It has good idea but rides the plot way to long and needed to go to next level.

Don't see it if Needs work, actors are just okay... need to speak up. If you need a Broadway production or something more established.

Slow, Funny, Cliched, Banal

Excruciating, Slow, Disappointing, Confusing, Cliched

See it if After a walk up to the 3rd floor to a warm theater, you don't mind a slow paced show which never really goes anywhere.

Don't see it if you're expecting a well done show or you're hearing isn't perfect. Unless you're caught in a downpour outside, find something else to do. Read more

Slow, Excruciating, Disappointing, Confusing, Banal

See it if The entreprenurial world of new electronic devices is so fascinating for you that you're willing to forgive any shortcoming in a play on it.

Don't see it if Endlessly talky dialogue with very little action or humor in a dull and listless production might put you to sleep because this will.

Waste of your time, Slow, Dizzying, Disappointing, Confusing

"In the days of AI living in our bedrooms, how are human sexuality, and the female orgasm in particular, really affected? I wish the playwright had had the guts to go all the way down this path, instead of circling around and spending time on 'smart' verbiage."
