Love Bug: An Epidemiological Comedy of Manners

by Ed Sikov

Ken Sinclair and Craig Mailman are a New York couple with a “don’t ask, don’t tell” open relationship. Complications ensue when Ken brings home the drag queen Tawdry Hepburn, who gives him crabs. Before long, Craig’s lover gets them; then his lover’s wife gets them; Ken’s mother gets them from Ken; Ken’s mother’s nurse’s aide at the retirement community gets them.... Love Bug is an epidemiological comedy of manners set in New York City and western Pennsylvania in 2007. It’s funny, and it’s short. You’ll laugh, you’ll itch...!
