10 Loves

5 - 6 Oct 2026

10 Loves

What if the government could protect your relationship?

In this world, every married couple is guaranteed thirty uninterrupted minutes together each day and ten chances each to say “I love you”.

For one young couple, it sounds like a dream. Time to talk, laugh, argue, apologise, and imagine a future together.

But what about everything else? Work. Exhaustion. Rising bills. The compromises and disappointments of ordinary life. How do these things reshape a relationship over years? What happens when love is no longer the only thing two people are trying to hold on to?

Funny, tender and quietly devastating, 10 Loves is a new two-hander about intimacy, labour, hope and survival. Set in a parallel universe, it may feel closer to your own life than you expect.
