Details
A first love story, one last time.
Heartfelt, hilarious, and wildly imaginative, The Upside-Down House is a time-bending story of love, memory, and learning to letting go.
When Older returns to the abandoned house of his youth, he’s confronted by the memory of his first love - vivid, funny, and impossible to ignore. As the house collapses around them, they’re swept through a dreamlike maze of their past, reliving the electricity and heartache of their secret romance.
Think Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind meets Normal People. The Upside-Down House is the latest production from the UK’s award-winning Tinderbox Theatre Company, premiering at the Belfast International Arts Festival.
