About the Show

Kieron Barry's romantic comedy with the scenes performed in random order.

Sarah and Molly are two Californians who have very little in common apart from the fact that they love each other. As the highly-strung lawyer and the dreamer hustle to make their relationship work, we see them break up, meet the parents, move in together and fall in love – all in a completely random sequence.

One of The Stage’s 2018 Top Talents To Watch, Lucy-Jane Atkinson, directs.
