I loved this show, it was moving, emotional and shows that love has no boundaries. I wish the couple every success in their ongoing journey, loved how they used dance to show their connection, original and beautiful!

A really interesting and touching show where the audience is taken on the personal journey of both performers, from how they started out to how they came to meet and become…one couple! A story told through dance; poetry; vulnerability; humour; interaction; artistic and creative use of the space and props and even beatboxing!…I could see and feel the energy and passion of both performers as well - it’s infectious! You really feel immersed in this show. Well done to both for creating this!

This show was amazing. It was an unfiltered love story telling. I would go to see it over and over again if I was still in Edinburgh because it touched me deeply and that what art does. It creates emotions

This show has a bit of everything - dance, spoken word, beatboxing (yep!) but most of all it is full of heart and emotion. Wonderful to hear a story about love and the mixing of different cultures.

This show portrays an amazing heartfelt display of the physical and mental journey to build the relationship between the performers of the one couple show that makes you reflect on your own relationships! Definitely a good show to go see!

The One Couple Show is a perfect blend of spoken word poetry and dance made seamless through storytelling and physical theatre. A bitter-sweet emotional journey of one couple's experience of meeting and determining a future life together. We go on a journey from Finland to South Africa in this fast-paced, emotionally vibrant narrative. Prepare to be both charmed and thrilled.
