PINCHOUCH! returns to the Hen & Chickens Theatre with the UK Premiere of MIKE FOLIE’S hilarious and political new play LOVE IN THE INSECURITY ZONE, a futuristic romantic comedy, which has played to rave reviews from New York to LA.

In a future not too far from us, characterized by security zones, personal bar code tattoos, and armed commuters, Gayle finds life either boring or terrifying.  Her mood is improved by a sudden romance with Hank, a secretive government agent on a mission to find very happy women.  When Hank meets Gayle’s sister, the perennially happy Pearl, he spirits both women off to Washington, D.C., where they become entangled in a sinister government plot to bottle happiness.

MIKE FOLIE’S plays have been produced Off-Broadway, regionally around the U.S. and internationally, winning many awards, and the Dramatist Guild Magazine named him as one of “Fifty Playwrights to Watch.” His play “The Adjustment” toured the UK with Stefanie Powers in the lead.

“This hilarious new play is almost indescribably bizarre.  And that’s a good thing.  Folie dishes out the incongruity at a nicely measure pace; he waits until just when you think you have things figured out before throwing in another twist” The New York Times

PinchOuch! bring their own comedic skills, timing and expertise to this bizarre and humorous play which exposes our own vulnerabilities in a world where love, politics and personal security are very much on the agenda. LOVE IN THE INSECURITY ZONE is directed by NIKI FLACKS, who has had an impressive career as director, actor, teacher, and psychologist that spans both sides of the Atlantic, including acting opposite Maggie Smith in Private Lives, on Broadway, directed by Sir John Gielgud.
