DR PATHICUS’ UNNATURAL ADVENTURES

Dr. Pathicus is an eccentric scientist, eager to preset his lifes work: A treatise on the sexual perversion, inversion and diversion of Limas Maximus…the Leopard Slug.

Pathicus is wholly unprepared when a mysterious entity usurps his lecture and plunges him into the deep wet seas. Enamoured, frightened, surprised and yes…perhaps…a little aroused... can Pathicus' secret desires be brought to light in the murky depths?

Fantasised from queer ecology research, this theatrical slip and slide sinks into the unusual, queer and debaucherous happenings of nature and its bewildering pleasures.

Science has never been this hot.
