Paul Levy talks to  writer and performer Gemma Harvey and director Lou-Lou Mason from Loquitur Theatre  about Lobster. They discuss the story of how the play came into being, the reseqrch, the dramaturgy, the devising and the rehearsal.

“In 30 years, the cultural change in courtship has been enormous. Today, overwhelmed by technology, are we losing sight of what human connection truly is…? Based entirely on real-life experiences, this hilarious, romping, multimedia exposé of modern dating scrutinises the deeper, brutal side of love and life, challenging our preconceptions of women and dating, sex and autonomy. From dreadful dates to exciting encounters, Tinder swiping, sexting, dick pics, pressuring parents and supportive friends… why is Polly so desperate…? What lies behind her relentless campaign…? And what might any of us do when our world falls apart?”
