LOVE+

Arriving in Sydney by way of Dublin is the MALAPROP theatre collective’s production of LOVE+. Following sell-out runs and rave reviews at Dublin Fringe and Edinburgh Fringe, and subsequent tours to London, Manchester, and Beijing, the emerging Irish theatre company is bringing its new show to Australia for the very first time.

LOVE+ is a one-woman two-hander about the inevitability of human/robot relationships. It asks: What happens to romance when there’s a machine who cooks for you, cleans for you, never forgets your birthday or how you like your tea, tells you you’re beautiful, holds you when you’re crying, and still makes you cum?

Audiences will be asked to consider concept such as loving others/things, being loved, being human, and whether those things are intertwined. It’s not about whether or not you can love machines, because we all already do – it’s about what it’ll be like when they start to love us back.

Sep 3-7. Old 505 Theatre, 5 Eliza Street, Newtown. $25-$30+b.f. Tickets & Info: www.sydneyfringe.com
