BY Lucy Kirkwood DIRECTED BY Meredith McDonough
NSFW is a sharp comedy about power games, privacy, and the objectification of women in the media. When a men’s magazine editor uses an amateur model in a racy photo spread, he can’t foresee the trouble it causes. In the aftermath, one of his former staffers lands at a stylish women’s magazine that can’t possibly be as bad as his last job...or can it? Learn more at RoundHouseTheatre.org
