Funny, touching and timely, LIKE ME shows how reliant we’ve all become on social media and how we live our digital lives often in stark contrast to our real world personas.

Paul Warrick Griffin said:
“From reading the script I knew it was a piece I wanted to be involved in bringing to the stage.  It’s such an engaging, relatable and relevant story of our times and I’m convinced our showcase production at The Courtyard Theatre will be a resounding success. I’m thrilled to be surrounded by such a dedicated creative team on Like Me and we all feel this piece will soon be enjoying a long London run. We’ve got jokes, some brilliant original music and powerful lyrics… I can’t wait to start work with our cast.”
