The Lover is the story of Sarah and Richard. This unassuming couple have been married for 10 years, and by all appearances they live a pretty conventional life… However, behind closed doors – while Richard is at work – Sarah is having an affair in an attempt to keep her marriage refreshed. Richard knows about ‘the other man’ and, in fact, allows him to frequent his house and visit his wife several times a week! Can Richard maintain his indifference to the affair to keep his wife happy, or will he crack!? This tantalizing comedy will have the audience on the edge of their seats, laughing as the drama unfolds.

When:  There will be three performances on the 27th, 28th, & 29th of August, 2020. Doors open at 6 PM, the show starts at 7 PM (beer, wine, and snacks will be available for one hour before and after the show).

Where: The Black Box Theatre, located inside of the Kerikeri Theatre Company studio, which is located at 17 Sammaree Place, Kerikeri 0230.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How do I get my ticket once I've ordered?

Immediately after you order you will receive an email receipt from Paypal. That email is your receipt/ticket and can be printed and brought with you to the show, or you can simply show us the email via a mobile device at the door. However, we will also have all names at the door, so a printed receipt is only a precautionary measure. You shouldn't need it. You will find the dates of your tickets in that email receipt. Doors are at 6 PM and the show starts at 7 PM.

Is the show family friendly?

The Lover does not feature gratuitous violence, drug use, nudity or sexuality, however the Lover does feature adult situations and references to sex, drugs, and alcohol. While children of all ages are welcome, parental guidance is required and anyone under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
