What happens when you’re in your mid 30’s, two kids and counting, and having difficulties keeping that flame burning in the bedroom? These sort of problems used to plague couples who felt that it was too improper of a subject to discuss, but don’t worry, it’s not a taboo to talk about bedroom play anymore. 

In fact, popular TV shows such as Game of 

Thrones and Orange is the New Black are crammed full of nudity and sexually explicit scenes. Nowadays, there’s even a whole museum- The Museum of Sex, also known as MoSex- that is dedicated to unraveling the intricate mysteries of enjoyable intercourse and the gift shop is filled with books of advice and a variety of equipment to spice things up with your partner.

Before you even begin to mess with any of the many sex toys being sold online and in stores, of course, anyone could tell you that communication is the first step in having a healthy and successful love life. Remember the universal parental advice? “If you’re not ready to discuss it, you’re not ready to do it”. In Peter Carrozzo’s play, The G69 Triple Xtreme Oscillator, our mid 30’s couple Wendy and Simon have done more than just discussion. Simon has gone online and ordered their very first sex toy, the G69 Triple Xtreme Oscillator. But the worst case scenario has befallen them, for in the hustle and bustle of household activities, Wendy accidentally left in plain sight the extremely graphic instruction manual of the G69 Triple Xtreme Oscillator which her mother in law may or may not have perused. And she might have come to her own conclusions about Wendy and Simon’s not so private life. 


How will the couple deal with this new disaster, and what effect will it have on their marriage and/or sex life? Interested in seeing more of Wendy and Simon’s heated discussions?
