The Wedding Date is an intimate two-hander about best friends Iris and Selena navigating singlehood, love and adulthood. With the audience as wedding guests, secrets surface and friendships fracture. Relatable for anyone in their twenties, it explores life living in London, the financial and emotional struggles no one talks about and the pressure to do “the right thing”. Society convinces us that the centre of our puzzle is a romantic partner – and without one we are incomplete. This show is a love letter to single people and friendships.
