The average person will speak 123,205,750 words in a lifetime. But what if there were a limit? Oliver and Bernadette are about to find out. Kyle McKenzie and Jaime Ashworth star in Sam Steiner’s Lemons Lemons Lemons Lemons Lemons, an amateur production by arrangement with Nick Hern Books.
Lemons Lemons Lemons Lemons Lemons imagines a world where we’re forced to say less. It’s about what we say and how we say it; about the things we can only hear in the silence; about dead cats, activism, eye contact and lemons, lemons, lemons, lemons, lemons.
Time Out described Lemons as “A beautiful play about the beauty and preciousness of language… about as promising as debuts get”. The Guardian adds that it “takes the can opener to a typical opposites-attract romcom in order to explore wider issues of democracy and free speech”.
Sam Steiner’s play premiered at Warwick Arts Centre in 2015 and won three Judges’ Awards at the National Student Drama Festival, before appearing at Latitude Festival, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and Camden People's Theatre, London. It transferred to the West End in 2023 receiving critically acclaimed reviews.
Let’s just talk until it goes…
