“I just want to be held, constantly.”
Natalie and Aren are “dating.” Whatever that means. Taking place over an evening in Nat’s room, we witness the ups and downs of a “relationship” on a knife’s edge.
swallow is an intimate look at fear of commitment, modern romance in the Black British community and the tragedy of falling in love with potential.
This reading will be one hour long, with a 30 minute post-show Q&A.
