Soho Theatre in association with RBM presents:

Alison Larkin: Grief… A Comedy (Edinburgh)

Wed 31 Jul – Sun 25 Aug 24
The English-American writer/comedian returns to the UK with the world premiere of this 'improbably funny, life-affirming, bright bauble of a piece' about love, loss and hope.

The English-American writer/comedian returns to the UK with the world premiere of her funny, life-affirming show about love, loss and hope. Alison found true love for the first time in her 50s with an Indian climate scientist who had also immigrated to the US. Then he died. Then something wildly unexpected happened. When Archbishop Desmond Tutu found out about it, he insisted she write this show “because it will bring hope.”

Music by Gary Schreiner.
