1 Love You Bitch Alberto Di Troia , 2021 single work drama

'“Everytime a friend succeeds, I die a little” – Gore Vidal

'Jem, Ella and Harry are friends.

'Best friends.

'Whip-smart underachievers side-eyeing their late twenties, their friendship is fuelled by pop music, gay meme accounts and a healthy cynicism about everyone and everything around them.

'Now Jem is moving to New York. On the eve of his departure, he invites Harry and Ella to his parents’ beach house for a final hurrah. 

'The usual. Cheap wine, expensive pizza, and bad movies.

'But now, Jem’s sudden commitment to his own personal growth threatens to rip apart the delicate threads that have tied them together for years.

'Can they face a world without each other? Or worse – a world where one of them doesn’t need the others?

'Gather the people who know you too well for this hilarious, moving and deeply relatable play LOVE YOU BITCH, about friendship and finding (or losing) your way in the world. You might just not be able to look them in the eye afterwards…'

1 Homo Italiano Alberto Di Troia , 2016 single work essay
— Appears in: Voiceworks , Summer no. 106 2016-2017; (p. 95-99)
''I don't quite remember when we realised our mistake. It was probably about ten minutes into the film, the scene where Angelo and Nino go camping and have sex in a tent. Mum turned to me, and rather than demand that I close my eyes while the characters were kissing (something she does in movies to this day), she urgently whispered, 'I think this film is about gays.''
