Overview

Love/Sick is a one-act, nine-or-ten-play cycle about love and loss - but mostly loss. Each play has its own arc and tells the story of a couple at a crossroads in their relationship. Since each relationship is more advanced than the previous relationship, a larger arc emerges, and the individual plays work together to create a satisfying whole - one that chronicles the life cycle of a typical relationship from meeting through to divorce... and afterwards. Full of imperfect lovers and dreamers, Love/Sick is an unromantic comedy for the romantic in everyone.

Reviews

""Entertaining and fun. A satisfyingly dark look at this thing we call love."" - BroadwayWorld ""Whimsical romantic comedy. In the nine vignettes that make up [the] play, couples meet... or break apart or learn to love each other more.... jokes here are easygoing and snark-free."" - The New York Times ""Sometimes playwright John Cariani looks at the world - actually the worlds of love and relationships - through rose-colored glasses. Just as often he views those worlds through lenses tinted a middling-to-dark gray or maybe a jaundiced yellow... While poking fun at the happily-ever-after notion by means of a strong dose of happily-never-after, Cariani shoots his cockeyed valentines with a quiver full of funny lines. He knows how to keep audiences laughing while passing along disappointing news."" - The Huffington Post
