Description

'i think i'm falling in love with you' Ella is from Yorkshire. Haseeb is from London. They order a pizza. House red for Ella. Hot chocolate for Haseeb. People and playlists. Christmas and Eid. Travelcards and Megabuses. London to Leeds. Love is more than just a game for two. Especially when there's an elephant in the room. Zia Ahmed's I Wanna Be Yours is a tender, funny, lyrical debut play about finding love and holding onto it with everything you've got. It premiered on tour of the UK in 2019, in a co-production between Paines Plough and Tamasha, including a run at the Bush Theatre, London. 'Urgently topical... the execution is exquisite' — Guardian 'Ahmed has beautifully taken what we know [the rom-com] and used it to explore a far more complex and searing relationship than I have seen onstage in a long time... nothing short of spectacular... both challenging and cosy at once' — A Younger Theatre 'A lyrical journey of connection through inner conflict... a delicious mix of humour, heartbreak and political activism' — Broadway World 'A tender romantic comedy incorporating remarkable insights into multicultural Britain... an eye-opening delight' — The Reviews Hub 'Deliciously visceral writing' — The Stage
