After many years of writing for film, Anna Longaretti turned her hand to writing plays. In 2013 she got to see her first play, Sex Cells performed at the Riverside Studios. She was overjoyed to hear an audience laughing at her lines and crying with emotion. She decided that it was so thrilling that she'd like t try and repeat the experience and is currently trying to get her head around writing a farce. Sex Cells is a very personal piece of work, influenced by all of the feelings that surrounded her, before and after her daughter, Saskia was born. Her daughter Saskia wrote the music for that particular production and can now be purchased by anyone else who would like to use it.

         Sex Cells

Sex Cells

Sex Cells
In a busy call centre, the four female employees of Aphrodite, a sex toy manufacturer, take telephone orders for Teasey Maids, Titivators and rotating pearl g-strings. Beneath the cheerful customer service and easy banter, however, these very different women nurse their own desires and disappointments. Sylvie is desperate to have a baby, but her single-minded approach is taking its toll on her marriage and causing friction with her co-workers. With five children, Janice rarely finds time for herself or her husband. Tiffany is young and single, looking for the one, but wary of sacrificing her independence. Star employee Lily, meanwhile, is stuck in a loveless marriage and estranged from her son, but buries her pain in wisecracks and work. Their gentle and innocent manager Mr Causeway attempts to diffuse the tension between his staff while suppressing a longstanding crush on the oblivious Lily. Sex Cells is a very funny, poignant play about motherhood, friendship, love and loss.
