Description
“That is the story of our beginning. And this is the story of the end.”
Lovesong is the story of one couple, told from two different points in their lives: as young lovers in their twenties and as worldly companions looking back on their relationship from old age.
Time is fluid as their past and present selves collide in this emotional drama. Love is a leap of faith, and the optimism of youth becomes the wisdom of experience.
Abi Morgan is an award-winning writer whose plays have been widely performed across the country. Her hit drama The Split recently aired its final series on the BBC.
A playful, heart-warmingly funny and tragic drama, LOVESONG speaks to all ages with its exploration of ageing, falling in love, and the fragility of life.
Though widely performed in the south of England over the last decade, we’re delighted to bring this beautiful and haunting drama to the North East.
