My overall impression

Love Is… AMAZING!

I was pulled in by it’s subtle flyer- the loving couple together, with their shadows walking away from each other- a hint that there just might be more to this play than what was on the surface… At least, that’s what I hoped for.

This play delivered! A powerful story of a couple’s attempt at starting a family, ‘Love Is.’ examines the perception of “the perfect couple,” and asks hard questions about what it means to be a family, what a person is willing to sacrifice, and most importantly what love means to each of us.

Powerhouse performances from both leads; American Molly Rose, and British actor Lee Turnbull, are not to be missed! Supporting cast is charming and grounded, and fill in this world very nicely! A refreshing departure from the pseudo-psychedelic, or the melodramatic, this is a REAL story, about REAL people and REAL events, and it feels authentic, believable and wonderful!

You will leave this show and want to talk about it for at least an hour afterwards!! TRULY A MUST SEE!!!
