The Year of the Sex Olympics
Overview: Influenced by concerns about overpopulation, the counterculture of the 1960s and the societal effects of television, the play depicts a world of the future where a small elite control the media, keeping the lower classes docile by serving them an endless diet of lowest common denominator programmes and pornography.

In this respect, the play is often cited as having anticipated the craze for reality television.
