Finding love is hard. Especially when your brain and mouth aren't always on speaking terms. Wracked by confusion after being dumped by his girlfriend for an all-powerful being, James sets out to discover the secret to true love. Along the way he encounters the usual characters found in every halfway-decent love story; such as an alcohol-loving misogynist, sexy Italians and a classically-trained murderous equine. This uniquely funny story is interlaced with some classical songs from the "Rat Pack Era", more recently popularised by artists such as Michael Buble. After a sell-out season at the Adelaide Fringe in 2012, James McLean returns with a tweaked and improved version of his debut show.
