About the Show

A passionate queer romance unravels as love blurs into obsession and power takes hold.

Private View, the debut play by Jess Edwards, begins as a heady romance between two lovers who fall hard and fast—but as their bond deepens, questions of desire, identity, and control begin to surface. What starts as a tender connection slowly shifts into something darker, exploring how intimacy can distort boundaries and how love stories can spiral into something much messier. This sharp, emotionally charged play examines the thrilling highs and disquieting lows of queer relationships, asking what we risk when we lose ourselves in someone else.

Critic Reviews (5)

"Mostly it’s a really brainy rush of a play that tries to disentangle love, art and physics all over the space of 70 minutes, and often succeeds."

"The dialogue is laboured in places, and while both actors give animated performances, harnessing a fizzing chemistry, it’s as if the text hangs invisibly between them."

"Private View is an aesthetically slick exploration of an unhealthy relationship, but it’s hard to really root for – or worry about – a couple you don’t believe in."

"Private View is solid, confident, and often engaging, but it continues to search for the deeper clarity that its premise promises."

"Private View is an overdue win for sapphic romance and an exciting examination of co-dependency...A play that asks you to look closer, feel deeper, and reconsider the private views we keep hidden within ourselves."
