Love is complicated, there’s no denying that. Dirty Great Love Story accepts this and presents a frank modern day tale of first chance meetings, missed opportunities and failed relationships. Based on and created by couple Katie Bonna and Richard Marsh, the Arts Theatre becomes their backdrop, transforming into a nameless bar, hotel room, music festival and a stately home.
The hot talking point within the arts has been the lack of diversity on stage. Considering it’s 2017, it’s quite intriguing as to why this hasn’t been addressed throughout the industry. With majority of theatre audiences being female, why aren’t their stories reflected? Theatre N16’s Literary Manager Nastazja Somers has pioneered a new festival aiming to shine a light on the female voice. Ahead of the 3rd edition, Nastazja talks about the festival’s much needed presence.
Hailed by The Daily Telegraph as “One of the most brilliantly effective spine-chillers you will ever encounter” Susan Hill‘s haunting tale, The Woman in Black is embarking on a UK Tour.
