Paines Plough and Drum Theatre

Love, Love, Love

By Mike Bartlett

Directed by James Grieve

Irish Premiere

"It could have been politicians or old men, an orchestra or ballet or something old like that but it wasn't. It was pop music. Young people, like us, dressed up as they want. Things are changing every day at the moment."

June 25, 1967. The night The Beatles sang All you Need is Love, the first live global TV event, and Kenneth and Sandra know the world is changing. And they want some of it. Olivier Award-winning playwright Mike Barlett's feriously funny new play Love, Love, Love takes on the baby boomer generation as it retires, and finds it full of trouble. Smoking, drinking, ambitious and paranoid, one couple's forty-year journey from initial burst to full bloom.

Lethally funny...beautifully performed...not to be missed The Independent
