Love feels so good… until it doesn’t. But every couple has disagreements, right?
You wonder if this feeling is normal — the walking on eggshells, sharpness, broken glass. Or are you being over-sensitive? And then things are good again, the world disappears and nothing else matters. There is nothing but you and me.
Friends start to ask: ‘Is everything okay?’ And something inside screams at you: ‘This isn’t normal, this isn’t right. Leave, why don’t you just leave?’ But you’ve been together so long. You can’t imagine life apart.
Dive follows one such relationship from giddy adolescence to old age, as love mutates into something unbearable, but is still impossible to let go of.
Inventive, humorous and heartfelt, Dive marks theatre-maker Laura Hayes’ Wild Rice debut, directed by Sim Yan Ying “YY”. Come explore the dark side of love through the prism of one couple, who could be any one of us.
Duration: approximately 1 hour 30 minutes (with no intermission)
