John Godber's new Northern Soul comedy comes to Richmond

The John Godber Company is bringing a brand-new play to the Georgian Theatre Royal as part of their Autumn Tour. Do I love You? - a hilarious dance-fuelled comedy runs from Wednesday 27 to Friday 29 September.

Twenty somethings Sally, Nat and Kyle develop a love for, and the people involved with, Northern Soul. What started as a college project has grown into a passion, but the dance steps are exhausting. Far beyond their home city of Hull the trio find excitement, purpose and the tribe they've been looking for. Now they can't get enough; from Brid Spa to Stoke, from Richmond to the Tower Ballroom, the young soulies are determined to keep the faith!"

This is Northern Soul for a new generation, but with rising costs, unemployment, and small-town blues, has anything really changed? Is this England 1973 or 2023? The pubs are closing, hospitality has gone, and strikes are everywhere; but when you're out on the floor!

From the writer of the legendary Bouncers, this brand-new show features Yorkshire actors Martha Godber and Emilio Encinoso-Gil, being joined by newcomer Chloe McDonald 

Tickets are available online or by calling Box Office on 01748 825252.
