Kiss under the lights. Back to his. Breakfast the next morning. Kiss goodbye. Maybe this is the one? His profile disappears…

Looking for fun? is a raw and unflinching one-person play that dives into the world of online hookups, queer identity, and the pursuit of connection in an age of instant gratification. Through witty monologues, playful audience interaction, and moments of deep vulnerability, we follow Looking4fun—a young man navigating the highs and lows of hookup culture, sexual liberation, and the scars of loneliness and shame.

Set against the pulsating glow of Grindr notifications and neon-lit club nights, this is a story about community, intimacy, and the search for something real amidst the chaos of “fun”. In a series of encounters—from awkward barber visits to tender dates—he reflects on love, shame, and the complexities of intimacy in a community shaped by its history and desires. As he spirals deeper into a cycle of fleeting connections and self-doubt, he grapples with what it truly means to belong, to love, and to be loved.
