"Utterly charming, bittersweet and seductive...

one of the loveliest laughter-filled hours I have experienced"

The Scotsman (4 star review)

Part stand-up, part storytelling and part fantastic physical comedy, Edinburgh Festival hit Sex With Pete Searles was a hilarious journey through Searles' entire sex life to date.

After his (much younger) girlfriend leaves him for a better looking, richer, more successful friend, Searles dissolves into a gibbering, chain-smoking, suicidal insomniac.  In desperation, he resorts to the latest new-age, self-help healing therapy: E.F.T. (Emotional Freedom Technique), regressing him into a voyage of self-rediscovery where buried memories of past relationships, one-night stands and a very confused childhood all come bubbling to the surface - with hilarious, painful and revelatory results!

Pete Searles is a writer, actor and director.  He worked as a rigger in the North Sea before becoming a performer, and for the past five years has toured his internationally acclaimed trilogy of one-man shows about his travels in South America throughout the UK, USA, Europe, Ireland, Bermuda, the Middle and Far East.
