Aiden is trying to bring his Argentinian fiancé to the UK but their relationship is cracking under the weight of bureaucracy. Imran left his Pakistani family to marry an Indian. After twenty years of marriage, he has just discovered his wife cheating and now has to endure a lengthy divorce process. Told through funny and poignant monologues, Aiden and Imran share intertwining stories that confront an uncomfortable question: when is it worth untying the knot? Based on the lived experiences of the actors themselves, ‘The Knot’ is an incredibly intimate, personal and timely show that addresses themes of masculinity, culture clash and how the government can become too involved in our romantic lives. The show is transferring from its successful run at the Tristan Bates Theatre, where it enjoyed a great audience and critical reception. Age Recommendation: 12+
