Play :: In a room in Soho, a dying man is turning gold. He has a gift. With just one touch of kiss, he can reveal a glimpse of heaven in all its glory. Some call him Cupid. Or Venus as a Boy. Journeying from his turbulent childhood in Orkney - haunted by the girl he betrayed and the lover he never escaped - and travelling south through the Highlands and Edinburgh, he finds himself in the seedy underbelly of Soho, where pimps and hormones and a transsexual called Wendy finally break him.
