Friday, May 2, 2025
Dave is on the quest to find answers, acceptance and love for his queer heart. Come dance, pray, mourn and unleash as we join him in his search to uncover these truths.
Directed by Amy Allen (Midas and Jury, Park Theatre), performed by David Scotland and Robert Strange (The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Doctor Who) and described by audiences as ‘a love letter to artists and to art itself’ I’ve Never Met Anyone Quite Like You Before is the debut play by David Scotland.
Following a successful premiere at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and a sell out run at the Old Red Lion Theatre, quitelikeyouproductions are proud to present I’ve Never Met Anyone Quite Like You Before at both the Etcetera Theatre, London and Red Sandcastle Theatre, Toronto this year.
