Lemons, Lemons, Lemons, Lemons, Lemons
May 24 - June 8
written by Sam Steiner
directed by Jenny Hollingworth
What if the number of words you could speak was limited to 140 a day? That’s the premise of Lemons, Lemons, Lemons, Lemons, Lemons, in which a new couple must choose their words carefully to navigate both their relationship and the outside world.
Argo Thompson appears as Oliver and Rosie Frater as Bernadette in this hilarious, thought-provoking look at how we use – and waste – language to express love, protest, fear, sorrow, and the everyday ups and downs of life.
“A beautiful play about the beauty and preciousness of language” – Time Out
