Following its sell-out run at Oval House's Upstairs Theatre in December 2004, Lovers From Hell will be transferring to Oval House's main downstairs space for a second run:
Wednesdays-Saturdays at 7.45pm, February 23rd to March 12th 2005. Free audience discussions: with the authors on Friday 25th, and with the company on Wednesday 2nd.

Lovers From Hell is a delicious helping of three new plays about people in extreme states of erotic and sexual confusion. For your first course, Robert Farrar's "Complex" and "Get The Guest," two kinky comedies of perverse desire, gay and straight. Then after the interval, "The Smell Of Asparagus Pee", Shaun Levin's wonderfully dark, poetic portrait of an abandoned lover.

To the original programme has been added a brand new playlet "Donut" by Robert Farrar to round off the evening's menu.
