You Belong To Me
by Rory Nolan

You Belong To Me is a new savage romantic comedy by Rory Nolan about the rules we make, the laws we break and what falls between the cracks. It is an unflinching look at two people who haven’t agreed on a single thing since they said “I do”.

Patty and Pato can’t stand the sight of each other. But they can’t afford to be apart. And they have the court order to prove it. A court order that runs an invisible wall through the house.

When an executor comes knocking with the chance of a legacy, Patty’s fortunes seem to be turning, but first things first- there’s a dance competition coming up, she needs a partner, and any man will do. With nobody left to torment, who does Pato really think he is? And how will he cope?

The war is not over yet.

Premiered December 2023 at Smock Alley Theatre.
