Davenham Theatre

28th February 2012 - 3rd March 2012

Tin Shed Theatre Company presents “Loveplay” by Moira Buffini, a local playwright now widely acclaimed on the international stage.

Loveplay is a historical comedy following a tangled trail of seductions and sexual encounters on the same location in London over a period of 2,000 years from 79AD to the present day. Ten scenes set in 10 different eras feature 31 delicate characters who are a poignant reminder of how throughout history the search for love has so often been depressing and volatile.

The audience is transported from Roman Britain, through Saxon times before entering a Medieval convent where nuns argue over the ideas of love. We witness Renaissance actors confusing reality with the play they are rehearsing, cringe in sympathy with 1960s would-be swingers and end up in a modern day dating agency where the manager is losing control of her own love life.

Warning: sexual content.
