Playing Around

 A little background more information about If There Is I Haven't Found It Yet.

The play debut at the Bush Theater in London  from October 17-November 21, 2009, and won rave reviews.  The play won Nick Payne the George Devine Award for Most Promising Playwright 2009.

 School's tough enough, and harder when you're overweight.  Add your mom's a teacher, it's hell.  Then your Dad's obsessed with saving the world and your  uncle camping out on the couch. 

So when Anna hits back at the bullies, she finds herself suspended from school and stuck at home with  her hapless uncle trying to save her. But he needs saving himself, and as the bond between the two deepens, Anna finds herself swept up in a friendship she can't live without.

With the play to coming to the US it looks like there will be a few revisions for American audiences.  But will be Jake be hanging out on the couch in his boxers like the original?

Nick and the cast went to a road trip to get a feel for the play during rehearsals and little insight on a guy like Uncle Terry.



And here is a little peek of the technical rehearsals from the play's debut run.
