About

A new gig theatre show.

Inspired by the real-life experiences of Laura and Kyle, the story follows two new parents grappling with the challenges of parenthood and the weight of postnatal depression. Through a powerful blend of music, tears, and laughter, the audience is taken on a heartfelt journey as they navigate the ups and downs of their new life together.

Songs taken from Kyle’s hit second solo album are reimagined live on stage in this new and urgent musical, capturing the essence of love, parenthood, and the struggles that come with it.

No Love Songs is part of the Made in Scotland Showcase 2023.

No Love Songs is part of the Traverse's £1 Ticket Project.

The Traverse is funded by Creative Scotland and The City of Edinburgh Council
