“Cause how am I gonna have the summer to end all summers with no one to share it with?”

Amani and Brianna are getting ready for a blind date, but getting there is the real test. Between teefing sisters, gentrified patties, flying bird poo, missing barbers, and a trim that could end a man, romance might not be the only thing on the line…

Set to a Caribbean South London soundtrack, A to B is about the beauty and absurdity of trying to be seen and to connect in a world that won’t stop interrupting. It’s about showing up: for love, family, yourself, even when you’re late, lost, or covered in mud. A coming-of-age romcom where nothing goes to plan, but everything still matters.

Written by up-and-coming British playwright Tia-Renee Mullings (Duppies, Royal Court Open Submissions Festival; Little Angela; shortlisted for the Alfred Fagon Award)

Directed by Ewa Dina (The Welsh Dragon, Theatr Iolo; The Kola Nut Does Not Speak English, Bush Theatre) winner of the JMK award 2026.
