It is 1995. 23 year old Dave is in love with Sarah. He’s been obsessed with her through his teenage years and now they’re renting a house together as ‘mates’. But Sarah’s off to New York to study for a PhD. The only problem is Dave – an out of work actor – doesn’t want her to go. He desperately needs the pennies to treat her to a romantic break abroad. So he spends a month working alongside nutcase Melvin at a scaffolding firm in the summer job from hell!

Fiona Wass ( Grown Ups BBC 3 and Macbeth Hull Truck), Matthew Booth (Emmerdale YTV and Christmas Crackers Hull Truck) join forces with Emmerdale's Marc Bolton -aka Dean Morris - who makes his Hull Truck debut.

This brand new comedy written and directed by Hull Truck’s Associate Director Nick Lane, premieres at the theatre before embarking on a 36 venue tour.

Nick adapted Hull Truck’s smash hits 1984 and Lady Chatterley’s Lover and most recently his zany adaptation of the children’s fairy tale Snow White, which proved to be so popular that extra performances were added to the schedule as the show sold out before it opened! My Favourite Summer is a character-based comedy bursting with sardonic and surreal humour. Written in Nick Lane’s utterly unique style it is brilliant, bizarre and hugely funny, it takes the lid off sexuality and relationships.

Editor’s Notes:
