We stage scenes of spectacular love. Scenes of romance downloaded from pop-culture are transposed to the real time of theatre. Cue Romeo and Juliet’s amateur dramatics, a scene stolen from Mills and Boon, a fairytale featuring a ham sandwich and more. Throughout the narrative, two guys and one girl are locked in a revolving love triangle, forced to exhaust the spectacle of love and see what survives. Two of the actors clearly can’t act. They are makingup and breaking up for your entertainment, exposing all when the fourth wall slips sideways. Follow them.
