One Of The Great Bittersweet Comedies Comes Back To Liverpool, As The Rainbow Connection Returns.

Liverpool’s Royal Court is proud to present a new production of the bittersweet comedy The Rainbow Connection.

Taking place in the new Downstairs theatre space, the show will star two familiar faces in Danny O’Brien and Angela Simms. Royal Court audiences will have seen them together before in both runs of the smash hit comedy The Royal in 2016 and 2017.

The Rainbow Connection was a hit when it was performed at Unity Theatre in 2013 with the same cast. Director Paul Goetzee also returns to his role for this new production.

The Unity Theatre To Host Joanne Sherryden’s The Rainbow Connection.

Some people can become the most unlikely of friends and the friendship between two very people is the subject of The Rainbow Connection which is being performed at the Unity Theatre from February 21st to Saturday 23rd February.

Joe is agoraphobic and anti-social whereas Shelly is just the opposite. Joe likes the George Peppard and Audrey Hepburn film Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Shelly sees a black-and–white film and she thinks there is something wrong with the television.  Joe has experienced a recent tragedy. Shelly is hanging on the dubious promises of the controlling Bernie. Joe is gay and Shelly isn’t. To say they don’t have much in common would be an understatement.
