About The Shape of Things

How far would you go for love? What would you be willing to change?

A fast-moving and thrilling piece of theatre set on a college campus in small-town America. It's a play about relationships, art and friendship where nothing is quite what it seems.

Adam, a geeky young student, drifts into an ever-changing romance with art major, Evelyn who encourages him to improve his appearance. As she instils in him a new found confidence, his best friend’s' engagement begins to crumble: so unleashing a drama that peels back the 'skin’ of two modern-day relationships.

Neil LaBute’s award winning play received its world premiere at the Almeida Theatre in 2001, starring Rachel Weisz and Paul Rudd and is revived by the producers of last year’s hit Clybourne Park.

Great acting, Edgy, Clever, Absorbing

See it if you want an intelligently written and very witty play, with excellent delivery from the whole cast. Funny and engaging throughout.

Don’t see it if you don’t like dark comedies. This centres itself around manipulative relationships and the ending sequence may prove a difficult watch.

Edgy, Refreshing, Clever, Thought-provoking, Absorbing

See it if You like romcoms like the movie 500 days of summer although this is edgy and dark. Wanna believe in the power of plays, just watch this

Don’t see it if You don't like getting repulsed by characters questioning yourself at the end if unconditional love is indeed a thing or not

Thought-provoking, Great writing, Great acting

See it if you like a play that makes you reconsider some things and surprises you

Don’t see it if you want a “happy” ending and don’t like having your mind with a million thoughts about the play
