Me For You

A new play by Rachel E. Thorn, which was longlisted for the Kenneth Branagh Award, is coming to Pleasance Courtyard and it’s all about the utter selfishness of true love.

Me For You

About Me For You

Listed Under Theatre Events

Me For You tackles the fundamental paradox of modern life – we want to be good people but we’re just so bloody self-absorbed. The play is about a gay couple who join Extinction Rebellion in a bid to save the planet. In the process, they have to face the fact that we do good things for personal gain. After all, what could be more selfish than being in love?

Pleasance Courtyard (The Green), Thursday 1st – Saturday 25th August 2024 (not 7th and 13th), 18:10 THEATRE

Previews: £9
Peak: £14
Off-Peak: £12

Ages 16+, strong language and distressing themes
