‘Love Song’ will take your breath away

Back for their second year at the Buxton Fringe Festival, Kaebide Theatre are presenting a modern play entitled ‘Love Song’ by John Kolvenbach. The company made their debut last year with the hilarious ‘Low Level Panic’ by Claire McIntyre, this year they embark upon a new challenge with ‘Love Song’.

The cast this year is: Beane - John Whall, Joan – Debbie Harlow, Harry – Andrew Horton, Molly – Katie Fullard and Directed by Jeff Foster.

Love Song by John Kolvenbach is a quirky comic four-hander that will touch you to your very soul.

This kooky romantic comedy follows the eccentric outsider of Beane, an introverted oddball. Beane struggles with society living his minimal existence with scant possessions: “a single cup and spoon.”

His well-meaning sister Joan and brother-in-law Harry, try to make time for Beane In their busy lives. Joan is a highly successful career driven woman, while Harry is the frustrated husband. Following a burglary at her brother’s apartment, Joan finds her brother blissfully happy and tries to unravel the story behind Beane’s mysterious new love Molly. Joan’s trials are in her stressful, professional life where she is “surrounded by Dipsticks” and she takes four-minute lunch breaks. Having just fired another student, this time for tears after a misfiling incident, her contempt for the incompetence is hilarious. Tough and hard nosed, Joan reveals that she has a real tenderness in her relationship with vulnerable Beane.

Beane’s apparent saviour emerges in the form of Molly, a burglar frustrated by Beane’s lack of consumerism. Spiky and unafraid to break any boundaries, Beane falls hopelessly and miraculously in love with Molly, his vandal-intruder. Expressing their love by sentimental stichomythic exchanges, the two social misfits mirror and complement each other. Moreover, Beane’s new-found elation with life spreads to Joan and her husband Harry, with some excellent comic timing.
