Lovesong at Cork Arts Theatre 20th to 31st January

Dear Cultural Companions Group, 


My name is Jenny, my husband Dylan and I trained and worked as actors in London. We came back to Cork and set up Red 'n Blue Theatre Company. We'd love to share information with your group on our upcoming play LOVESONG. 

We'd be delighted if you're group would like to come along and depending on your numbers/the night you come we'd gladly do a Q+A afterwards for your group if that was something you were interested in.



Tuesday 20th to Saturday 31st January @ 8pm

LOVESONG

by Abi Morgan

LOVESONG by Abi Morgan is a story of one couple, told from two different points in their lives, as young lovers in their thirties and as worldly companions looking back on their relationship. Their past and present selves collide in this beautiful tale of togetherness. All relationships have their ups and downs; the optimism of youth becomes the wisdom of experience.
Love is a leap of faith.
