Location: BATS Theatre

Written by Catherine Zulver, Presented by Red Scare Theatre Company
A new musical about love, loss and the ones you never truly got over.
Many years ago, Claire and Dylan were young and in love, travelling the world together. It's been over a decade since they last spoke when Dylan calls Claire from a hospital room in New York, where he has collapsed with an unknown illness. Not really knowing why, Claire rushes to his side.
Now the two of them must work out what they are to each other, and what they want to be.
23 - 27 July, 6:30pm, BATS Theatre

Catherine Zulver’s new musical, When We Were Us, produced by Red Scare Theatre Company, directed by Helen Mackenzie Hughes (Melancholy Play) and starring Julia McDonald (The Sandwich Artist, Hausdown) and Kevin Orlando (Wicked, Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812) is the latest work by the playwright and composer who brought you the smash hit In It Together at BATS Theatre in 2018.
If you’re a fan of musicals — like Once, The Last Five Years, Tick, Tick Boom or films like (500) Days of Summer — When We Were Us perfectly captures the magic, melancholy and heartbreak of young love when the whole world is in front of you and you don’t yet know who you are.
Written by Catherine Zulver. Music in collaboration with Marley Richards, 2023-4 Isaac Thomas, 2018
