Ugly Love

Ugly Love 

Jess and Sam have been together for nine years. While they still love each other, there is no denying that they’ve fallen into a rut.   

After a night out with a captivating performer, Jess finds something she didn’t know she was missing.

Sam finds himself in a new and complicated relationship.

Their friend Maddi thinks they are both crazy.

But polyamory isn’t all fun, games, and threesomes. Jess and Sam soon realise that being “ethical sluts” isn’t easy.

Sexy, funny and queer AF, Ugly Love is a new musical by Lucy Matthews.
