Love, Love, Love
Visiting Company
Love, Love, Love takes on the baby boomer generation as it retires, and finds it full of trouble. Smoking, drinking, ambitious and paranoid, we follow one couple’s forty-year journey from initial burst to full bloom. Paines Plough and Drum Theatre Plymouth present this Scottish Premiere.
1967. Kenneth and Sandra know the world is changing. And they want some of it.
This “bang-on-the-money new play” (The Telegraph) received critical acclaim when it premiered in October 2010 and now comes to Scotland for the first time.
Mike Bartlett is an Olivier Award winning playwright. His last play Earthquakes in London, premiered at the National Theatre and was hailed as “the best new play of the year” (The Stage).
An acid sharp story of a couple who wanted to change the world but cannot change themselves.
“terrific lines and big laughs… Bartlett does the clash of generational world views with a devastating precision”
The Guardian
★★★★
“A nuanced, witty script about payback for the baby boomers who merrily swung through the Sixties”
The Telegraph
