This is the tale of Jonah, Sophie, and a fox called Scruffilitis. It's a love story. A dysfunctional, voyeuristic and darkly funny love story, but a love story all the same.

This new play by the Bruntwood Playwriting Prize winner Phil Porter, is an exciting collaboration between Soho Theatre -- London's most vibrant venue for new writing, comedy and cabaret -- and internationally acclaimed Fringe First winners nabokov.

REVIEWS:

"Blink is everything you want in a relationship play: funny, painful, affecting."

 The New York Times

"The awkward silences here make you wonder what possibilities Harold Pinter might have found in Wi-Fi monitoring technology."

 The Guardian

"Phil Porter's subversion of the romantic comedy remains a bittersweet and tender thing... While Porter's skewed two-hander flirts with the conventions of romantic comedy, the results are pleasingly idiosyncratic and complex, dealing sensitively with bereavement and loneliness."

 The Stage

"It really is a charmingly sweet and smile-inducing piece of theatre."

 A Younger Theatre

"The strength of Porter's writing lies in its use of detail, its attention to specifics and its use of tonal juxtaposition."

 Exeunt

"Blink feels closer to an indie romcom movie than any other theatrical reference point."

The Skinny

Premiere Production: Blink has its world premiere on 2 August 2012 at the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh.
