Three female playwrights have a trio of short plays with music coming to Live Theatre, all of which are tackling that thing called love.

One: A young woman runs away from a world that doesn’t understand her, and she finds shelter in a local social club. But will they have the heart to truly let her in? Two: A visiting expert lecturing on the secrets of the heart has a dark and unexpected truth of their own. Three: An obsessive fan poses as her musical idol online and becomes lost in a maze of love and revenge… Laura Lindow, Naomi Obeng and Vici Wreford-Sinnott are the playwrights behind these startlingly original pieces that take in passion, obsession, acceptance and betrayal. All are receiving their world premiere and all look incredible.

Three Acts of Love, 30 November-16 December, Live Theatre, Newcastle, 7.30pm (+ various mats), from £10 (concs from £6), live.org.uk
