love, rebel

29 - 30 OCTOBER 2025

PIP Theatre

Love, Rebel is the hit verbatim theatre/comedy show where Rebel opens a sealed box of letters she wrote, every single day for a year (2009–2010) to the one that got away: a German exchange student who was deported for underage drinking. She never sent a single one. Instead, she stashed them in a shoebox, and now, sixteen years later, she's reading them aloud for your pleasure, horror, and catharsis.

Part tragic love story, part comedy of errors, part awkward coming-of-age saga, this show is a time capsule of unfiltered teenage stream of consciousness, undiagnosed autism, a yearning disability and an official obsession with The Sims 2. No edits. No rewrites. Just the raw, ridiculous poetry of adolescence, delivered with adult wit and... maybe a song.

After two sold-out seasons, Love, Rebel returns for a final unfiltered run: Rebel is cracking open the last of the unread letters.
Presented by Rebel Star and Jennifer Laycock
