"It feels weird saying this out loud but - I find it hard to believe someone could be interested in me. I'm not into stuff that most people are into. Romantically."

Jamie has never been in a relationship before, but she knows all about desire and fantasy. Spending her nights working in a club cloakroom and her days taking care of her niece, she sets out to meet the one. But when a girl starts turning up to her house in the middle of the night, the memories she's pushed to the back of her mind get harder to ignore. 

Don't Stand So Close To Me is a new play about two strangers whose lives become intimately connected in ways they cannot see, exploring sex, power and the internet, by Royal Court Writer's Group alumni Aisling Towl.
