What Love Sounds Like by Peter Souter

A blind man and a deaf woman meet in a faith healer's waiting room, but all is not quite as it seems. Stars Alex Jennings.

What Love Sounds Like centres around the meeting of a blind man, Dom, and a deaf woman, Thea, in a faith-healer's waiting room.

Dom has only recently gone blind and is at odds with the world and himself. Thea, using her computer voice generator, plies him with questions - particularly about an old, painful relationship which Dom is initially reluctant to talk about.

As the play progresses we realise that all is not quite as it seems, and that this meeting may have profound consequences for them both.

Written by award-winning playwright Peter Souter.
