Show Logo
A musical duologue, After The Beep traces the lives of a 30ish couple after their relationship of five years ends. From the moment that Jason leaves Samantha behind in their flat the two of them never speak face to face, relying instead upon messages left on their answering machines to communicate.

Jason attempts to deal with the problems of having to move back home with his parents and Sam works her way through all the issues and problems her new found single status creates. This intimate musical comedy has been workshopped with the cast of Melissa Langton and Matt Hetherington under the direction of Gary Young.
