Dirty Great Love Story is a dynamic collaboration between Richard Marsh and Katie Bonna that blends poetry, prose, and theatre into rhyming verse. Premiering at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2012 (Pleasance Dome) and earning the Fringe First Award, the show quickly traveled across the UK and to New York, captivating audiences with its witty, heartfelt storytelling. The production later transferred to the West End’s Arts Theatre in January 2017 with a cast including Felix Scott and Ayesha Antoine. The script is published by Bloomsbury Methuen Drama, now in a second edition (2017), and available through Bloomsbury/Methuen Drama. Rights are managed by Concord Theatricals. For bookers, venues, and fans, Dirty Great Love Story remains a benchmark for contemporary spoken theatre that fuses lyrical language with stagecraft.
