No Strapline

A History of Falling Things

Friday 11 July–Saturday 26 July 2014

A New Vic production

by James Graham, directed by Emma Lucia

A truly original play. Funny, touching, thought-provoking and hugely entertaining, it’s a 21st century love story from one of the country’s finest writers.

Robin writes children’s books. And he hasn’t left the house since he was seven. Jacqui’s something important in the The City. But these days she’s power-dressing at home. Then they find each other online and fall in love.

It must have been written in the stars – their houses are just five minutes apart. Only there’s a problem, neither is able to walk through their front door. But, if they can;t find the courage to confront their fear and embrace what’s real, how are they ever going to stay together?
