The country's hottest actor-comedians star in this funny, searing and ultimately touching love story. A new comedy by Neil LaBute.
When Tom (Robert Webb, from hit comedy duo Mitchell and Webb) first meets Helen there is an instant connection, but it’s not exactly love at first sight...
Helen (Ella Smith, Sold) is a bright, funny, sexy young woman who happens to be plus-sized - and then some - so it’s only so long before the jokes start to fly from Tom's office buddies (My Family's Kris Marshall and Gavin and Stacey's Joanna Page).
This looks set to become a mammoth success! A comedy of love, vanity and ammorality that makes us laugh while challenging our own views on body-image and ultimately, the meaning of love.
Kris Marshall holds forth masterly as the misanthrope New York high-flyer Carter, stalking long-leggedly across neat, concise sets and delivering earnestly Neil La Bute's devastatingly acerbic, black pearls of cynicism.
Robert Webb is equally impressive, his nervous energy and expressive gesticulations are magnified wonderfully by the intimate setting of the theatre. And it's all set to a chugging soundtrack of early White Stripes which will have you stomping your feet in approval - indulge now!
