WRITTEN & DIRECTED BY DAVID BRADY
PRESENTED AS PART OF THE HERE | FOR SEASON OF WORK, OCTOBER 2026

“The problem with making a big entrance is that there’s always someone left to clear it up later.”

He believes in love.

Big songs. Big feelings. Big entrances. The kind of love that comes with a key change, a confetti cannon and absolutely no sense of self-awareness.

He believes love is probably somewhere else. Somewhere warmer. Somewhere louder. Somewhere with better lighting.

Edith Piaf. Strobe lights. Strangers. Perfect nights. Bad decisions. The one that got away. The one that might still be out there.

He believes in loving everyone to bits and throwing it all in the air for the world to see.

Most of all, he believes in looking the truth right in the eye and running away.

Because love should be extraordinary, shouldn’t it?

It should be cinematic. Transcendent. Life-changing.

It should feel like dancing in the moonlight with the whole world falling away.

But what if it isn’t?

What if it’s been somewhere much closer all along?

And somewhere there’s a big red phone that won’t stop ringing.

From tiny gestures scrawled on sticky notes to 1,001 dancefloors, from the songs that made us believe in a thing called love to the quiet moments in between, Big Love is a brand new solo show about belief, desire, avoidance and the people we choose to give it all up for in the end. 

Part party, part confession, part love letter to all of life’s best bits, Big Love is a funny, generous and quietly devastating new piece of fringe theatre about chasing extraordinary moments, the people we love to bits, and finally having to answer a call that won’t go away. 

And that’s a lot of love to cram into one little theatre in Kentish Town. 

Written and directed by David Brady and produced by the critically-acclaimed, award-winning team behind Feel, At Last, Lately and Flashbang, Big Love crash-lands into the Lion & Unicorn Theatre for a two-week run as part of the Here | For Season of new work this October. 

You should probably get that. 

Right?
