No Love Songs

A New Musical

Sep 27 – Oct 20 / The Terris Theatre - 33 N Main Street, Chester, CT 06412 view map

In a hopeful and empowering tale of modern romance, No Love Songs tells the story of Jessie and Lana—young and in love one second and pregnant the very next. When Jessie is called away to tour with his band in America and post-partum depression sets in for Lana, they must learn to navigate the unique challenges of their new lives as parents. Through a powerful blend of humor, heart and indie rock music, you’ll be taken on a journey that captures the essence of love and realities of early parenthood. After sold-out runs at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival and in London, see it here first before it heads to New York!
