Publicly funded sex show
Discussion
No idea if the title will pass muster with the mods, it's about as benign as I can make it.
Essentially crap porn funded by the taxpayer and called art.

I can't fathom how there's public money (and significant amounts at that) for this sort of stuff but no funds for things like public loos in most town centres, among 100's or other public service cuts.

Well, I suppose bringing back public toilets in town centres would provide both an amenity and a depraved sex facility in one go.Essentially crap porn funded by the taxpayer and called art.

Brilliant.Oh my. I shall speculate that this has backing from the Scottish Greens.

The project's description continues: "Guided by a queer team, and driven by a neurodivergent dramaturgy, we are exploring new approaches to intimacy coordination and non-simulated sex in the devising process.
"Through a consent and access led approach we will co-create the work with the cast, drawing on the different skills and experiences of each cast member to realise this fantastical erotic world."
Well, those certainly are all words. "Through a consent and access led approach we will co-create the work with the cast, drawing on the different skills and experiences of each cast member to realise this fantastical erotic world."

Scotland spending taxpayers money well again 
Doesn't the article say its funded by the national lottery and goes on to say it considerably more explicit than they where led to believe in the bid for the funding. Sounds to me like Creative Scotland are being quite sensible here in reviewing it and not wanting to waste public money. An SNP Quango "Creative Scotland" according to Craig Houston.
Short video on it and other wasting SNP guff: For the older readers the title "Debbie Does Humza" raised (ooh err) a smile...

Does it matter that is relates to sex and/or sexuality? Would spending £84k of tax payers money be any better if it was a different form or art, maybe a celebration of painting with custard?
Outrage at sex makes no sense, outrage at wasting public money however does matter.
My disdain for modern art is broad ranging. Outrage at sex makes no sense, outrage at wasting public money however does matter.
I do understand that art sometimes needs to be provocative and confrontational and beyond my comprehension BUT we're well catered for in the watching people have sex genre without publicly funding it.

Sounds a bit fraudy to me. Write down what they want to hear to get the money and then do what you want with it in the name art and creativity.
It sounds like the kind of thing you could do with an iPhone and the local village hall. So about £12.50.
