Fringe First Award-winning Dirty Great Love Story makes its West End debut, in a new production, at the Arts Theatre. You can catch it there Wednesday 18th January – Saturday 18th March 2017.
Two hopeful, hapless romantics get drunk, get it on and then get the hell away from each other. In her eyes, he’s a mistake. A mistake who keeps turning up at parties. In his eyes, she’s perfect. He’s short-sighted. An achingly funny romantic catastrophe of good intentions and bad timing that asks, can a one night stand last a lifetime?
Writers Richard Marsh and Katie Bonna comment, “We’re overjoyed that Dirty Great Love Story will be swaggering and spewing, loving and losing its way back to the stage. It’s going to be a huge treat to see two other actors playing out our excruciating embarrassments, boozy triumphs and awkward romantic disasters.”
Dirty Great Love Story was awarded a Scotsman Fringe First Award for outstanding new writing in 2012 and was shortlisted for both the Holden Street Theatre Award and the Brighton Fringe Award. Bonna also received a nomination for the prestigious Stage Award for Best Actress at the Edinburgh Fringe 2012. Marsh has since been selected as one of Time Out’s most influential people in the arts and was crowned London’s Poetry Slam Champion in 2012.
