Never Sleep Alone is a comedy and music show designed to help people hook up! Sexual psychologist and music therapist Dr. Alex Schiller (Roslyn Hart, aka SHELLS) brings the hot, the single, and the curious together for a night of delirious laughter and socio-sensual interaction. Single audience members are offered discounted tickets and free champagne, provided they are willing to sit at communal tables and actually connect with each other. Never Sleep Alone is a savagely funny, truly unique comedy show and the perfect social event for adventurous singles in search of something new.

“Single straight males should sit with single straight females, hot gays with hot gays, older rich men with younger drunk women. Why sit with people you find sexually irrelevant?”

– Dr. Alex

“Singles” mix in the front and “Voyeurs” watch from the back as the provocative and irreverent Dr. Alex dispenses sex advice from her new book Never Sleep Alone, sings re-imagined pop sings and brilliant originals, and leads her audience through a wildly entertaining evening. Willing singles are invited to join Dr. Alex on stage for an assisted speed-dating session. The night continues at an exclusive after-party and the secret location is announced at curtain call. Never Sleep Alone is the perfect Thursday night for singles, voyeurs, and all lovers of great music and irreverent comedy.

Readers who are interested in participating in an on-stage date at the show, or sharing their opinions on sex and dating with the audience, should send their request to NSAshow@gmail.com
