"I can’t talk about these things with anyone else. You’re my priest."

Daniel is a convicted murderer on Death Row.
Alice is his neurotic girlfriend.
Charlie is a 15-year-old girl from Reading.
Judith, a God-fearing mother.
They all write to Daniel. They all need Daniel.
But will true love wait?


An explosive comic drama for three voices, True Love Waits fuses monologue and movement to tell the story of three 'pen pals' approaching personal crises. As they write to Daniel, separate lives begin to interweave and collide, and events take a darker turn.


A unique commission from three of the hottest talents from the Royal Court's Young Writers' Programme, True Love Waits is a darkly comic journey through three women's lives and their obsession with a serial killer.
