2023

Overview

Recommended Age Guideline 14+

Dundee Rep Theatre in association with Traverse Theatre

A new gig theatre show featuring songs by Kyle Falconer of The View.
Inspired by the real-life experiences of Laura and Kyle, the story follows two new parents grappling with the challenges of parenthood and the weight of postnatal depression. Through a powerful blend of music, tears, and laughter, the audience is taken on a heartfelt journey as they navigate the ups and downs of their new life together.

Songs taken from Kyle’s hit second solo album are reimagined live on stage in this new and urgent musical, capturing the essence of love, parenthood, and the struggles that come with it.

Notes: Sudden loud noises, amplified dialogue, full blackouts are likely, effects lighting, including flashing. Contains strong language and themes of suicide, mental illness, and postnatal depression.

 

Ashley Davies, Freelance Arts Journalists and one of Made in Scotland 2023 panelists, talks about the reasons why No Love Songs was selected to be a part of the MiS showcase.
