City Love cover

A grim, witty and agonizingly real play that will pierce the heart of anyone who has ever been in love

I feel like asking him to stay. To never leave this room. But I know that soon he will leave and... I’m going to ring him that night. I’m not going to write anything down. I might not even say anything. Just listen to him breathe. Lucy and Jim are alone. To the world they seem to be doing alright: they have jobs, friends, ambitions (well, sort of). But inside they are drowning. Until their chance meeting on a London night bus leads to a desperate search for redemption, each through the other. Inevitably, though, their hopes for salvation are dashed as deep-rooted insecurities rise to the surface. City Love is an unflinching look at the opposing human needs for companionship and self-destruction. Sharp observations transform the mundane into the epic in this grim, witty and agonizingly real play that will pierce the heart of anyone who has ever been in love.

You sense the relationship has a thousand echoes across London . . . City Love catches the psychology of the city * Telegraph *
