I’LL TELL YOU IN PERSON

Tuesday 16 February – Sun 14 March
@ Alex Hotel (World Premiere)

What we love about it?
I’LL TELL YOU IN PERSON relates to something anybody can relate to… differing opinions and the misunderstandings that result between two people.

You and a friend are invited to put on a set of headphones and listen to the story of two people finding and losing each other and finding each other again.

Once the story is told, you and your companion get the opportunity to unravel and explore what went unsaid… maybe over a glass of wine in the bar after?

Who would you experience this show with?
