The Edinburgh Fringe hit from Colla Voce Theatre is heading to the studio at The Other Palace for a three-week run from 2-20 June. It's also playing at The Lowry from 29-30 May.
You and I has apparently been extended to a two-hour running time from its Edinburgh incarnation last summer.
I've followed this company, Colla Voce Theatre, who hail from Sheffield for a while now after seeing their first show Buried, with its twisted tale of two serial killers who meet while speed-dating, at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2017. They upgraded from C Venues to Underbelly for the show's return to Edinburgh in 2018, then You and I proved a terrific, charming and quirky follow-up last year.
It's great to see a new company with bags of potential seemingly going from strength to strength. Can't wait to see the full-length version of the show!
What do you do when the world’s first super-intelligent robot turns up at your door asking about the origins of the universe, karaoke and the meaning of porn? Fran is about to find out. ‘You and I’ follows the story of this aspiring musician as she learns to conquer fear, cope with loss and find her voice, all through her new friendship with a robot named Robert.
“You and I is a delightful comedy counterpointed by a more poignant tone about dealing with loneliness and loss.” – British Theatre
Tom Williams and Cordelia O’Driscoll’s sophomore show comes after the huge success of their debut, ‘Buried’, which recently won them the Best Book and Best Music awards at the New York Musical Festival.
With a soulful folk score from this award-winning duo, this touching new musical comedy explores what it really means to be human.
“The score is by turns hilarious and wonderfully, surprisingly poignant” – Miro Magazine
★★★★★ – Broadway Baby
