Development History
This play was devised collaboratively by Sara Tilley and Danielle Irvine, based on texts written and/or collected by Sara Tilley. The original text in the piece came from entries made by Sara Tilley as the character JD on an online diary for the period of a year. These entries as well as comments and advice given by other online diarists were combined with found texts to examine the overall theme of love addiction. No date.
