Do I Love You? at Shakespeare North Playhouse: Northern Soul, Comedy, and Coming of Age on the Dancefloor

After a sell-out UK tour in 2024, the feel-good hit Do I Love You? is back—bringing laughs, heart, and irresistible rhythm to the Shakespeare North Playhouse in Prescot from 2nd to 5th April 2025.

Written, produced, and directed by acclaimed playwright John Godber, this vibrant comedy follows twenty-somethings Sally, Nat, and Kyle as they stumble into the Northern Soul scene—what begins as a college assignment soon becomes a full-blown obsession. Set against the backdrop of soul nights, talc-covered dancefloors, and legendary venues, the trio chase the beat from Bridlington Spa to Harrogate, Blackpool Tower to Prescot, discovering connection, purpose, and a community they never knew they needed.

Hilarious and heartfelt, Do I Love You? blends sharp one-liners with social commentary, capturing the spirit of youth in a world that’s constantly changing—but somehow always the same. In the shadow of economic struggle, closed pubs, and endless strikes, this is a story about escape, identity, and keeping the faith—on and off the dancefloor.

With infectious energy, standout performances, and a soundtrack guaranteed to get your feet moving, this is Northern Soul for a new generation. Whether you’re a long-time soulie or discovering the movement for the first time, this unmissable stage comedy promises an unforgettable night out.

Tickets for Do I Love You? are available now from the Shakespeare North Playhouse box office in person or by calling 0151 433 7156.
