Description

Dave’s relationship with art is not going well, in more ways than one. In one half of this play, he struggles to navigate the minefield of modern LGBTQ+ relationships with his boyfriend. In the other, he tries to justify being an artist to notable presences in his life ranging from his mum to his (prospective) agent. Travelling from a gay club to a church, a coffee shop to a cemetery and incorporating movement and music throughout, this play is as funny as it is poignant and as universal as it is personal.

TL;DR - “Human, poignant, truthful and brave, ‘I’ve Never Met Anyone Quite Like You’ is one of the best queer stories I have ever had the honour of witnessing.”

I love this show. It has everything. Beautiful script, wonderful performances. So many relatable themes to anyone with a soul. Can’t wait to see more from this group!

I really enjoyed this show and loved the dual content being shifted back and forth. I found some parallels in my life that were both touching and interesting how things can be different when you take a different path. Definitely would love to see more about David and Art.
