LoveFringe code: b8c5

When Grace left she forgot to tell Tom why. So he waited for her on the Quay. And fifteen years later she came back. Our Share Of Tomorrow is a love story. Real Circumstance returns to the Edinburgh Fringe following its critically-acclaimed productions of LIMBO (2007) and LOUGH/RAIN (2008). “Moving, gut-wrenching contemporary theatre” (***** Metro on LOUGH/RAIN)

3 reasons to see this show:

  • A beautiful and touching story about love, loss and hope
  • A thematic, moving experience that will touch audiences
  • A unique style of emotionally truthful and detailed work

Our Share of Tomorrow

Dan Sherer's work is powerful and emotionally charged. The characters are well drawn and the acting is thoroughly professional. For someone so young, Tamsin gives an exceptional performance. The play flows well and yet leaves us the space to use our own imagination so involving us in the tensions. The direction is faultless.Well worth seeing.

Exciting debut

Dan Sherer has been at the Fringe before - as a director. This year he introduces us to his own writing. Our Share of Tomorrow is a powerful, taut and well crafted love story that in the space of an hour, lures us in and holds us fast. Well performed, simply told but with a layered complexity that delivers some strong emotional punches.

Deep and truthful acting

One of the real strengths of Real Circumstance - and this production in particular - is the depth and truthfulness of the actors' performances. All three performers in 'Our Share of Tomorrow' create totally believable characters - whether the vulnerability of a bereaved teenager, the strange, childlike innocence of a lover, or the conflicted protectiveness of an older friend. The script also conveys brilliantly the confused thinking and actions which are the stuff of real life. Moving, sometimes heart-breaking, as well as intriguing (as we see the fractured story gradually revealed), this is a great piece of theatre.
