What does the word "flat" mean in the Synopsis? Super Urgent! Thanks

Quiche, an androgynous actor who has just unsuccessfully completed 714 auditions, marries Alexander Alexandrovich, the perfect man but is broken when, upon waking up in the morning, discovers that Alexander Alexandrovich is flat (Like, flat flat).

Now why would someone just do that?

Winner of the 2006 York University President’s Prize for Playwrighting, Unicorn Horns is a truly comic tragedy involving masturbation.

Hi,

Quiche, an androgynous actor who has just unsuccessfully completed 714 auditions, marries Alexander Alexandrovich, the perfect man but is broken when, upon waking up in the morning, discovers that Alexander Alexandrovich is flat (Like, flat flat).

I wonder if there are any typos here. Apart from the very puzzling use

Taking the play's title and subject matter into account I think that 'flat' refers to his inability to, um, be erect.

"flat" as in "flaccid''...

I'm worried about your reading habits: I thought i was the one with weird reading tastes, lol.

Could it also be flat broke?

No money whatsoever?
