"If you haven't met someone by the time you graduate, you're going to marry someone from your work. Its that simple. Do you know how they get animals to breed in captivity? They put them in the same cage."
Tom's been head hunted for a new job. He owns three suits, a modest amount of kitchen equipment and an assortment of Japanese action figures. If you saw him on the street, you'd never imagine that he's still in love with his childhood sweetheart.
Amy's got a career, a Fiat Punto and a flat full of stuff. To all intents and purposes she's a fully-functioning grown up. But she's never got over her first love, and nobody she meets stands a chance of matching up to his memory.
When Tom and Amy get together after a boozy office party, it seems like they might be able to make a go of it. But soon the ghosts of relationships past begin to interfere with the here and now. And getting over our romantic histories is easier said than done.
First produced by The Bush Theatre London and Sheffield Theatres in association with Birmingham Rep, My Romantic History premiered at the 2010 Edinburgh Fringe Festival where it won a Scotsman Fringe First Award.
