LOVE AND INFORMATION
PARTIES ARE A CRUEL KIND OF FUN
Someone sneezes. Someone can’t get a signal. Someone won’t answer the door. Someone put an elephant on the stairs. Someone’s not ready to talk. Someone is her brother’s mother. Someone hates irrational numbers. Someone told the police. Someone got a message from the traffic light. Someone’s never felt like this before.
In this fast moving kaleidoscope, more than a hundred characters try to make sense of what they know.
“Where hearts connect, minds collide, and data reveals the secrets of the soul.”
Love and Information by Caryl Churchill is a captivating and thought-provoking play that delves into the complexities of human connection in the digital age, exploring the ways in which love and information intersect and shape our lives. With sharp wit, humour, and a keen understanding of the human experience, Churchill’s play prompts us to question the nature of our connections and the impact of technology on the fabric of our relationships.
The script doesn’t dictate who says what, when, or in what order. In this way, no production of this show is ever the same. Performed in the intimate setting of the Playhouse, with a colourful, modular set that reflects the kaleidoscope of emotions that the characters experience, it will speak most to audiences under 30 and should have great appeal to students of Drama and English and anyone who enjoys contemporary theatre.
