The first major revival of How Love Is Speltwill be performed at the Southwark Playhouse, it has been announced.

Set in 2004, the play centres on Peta, a young, independent woman who is looking for new friendships and romance. Thrust into big adventures, her ability to start a new life is put on hold when constant reminders of previous events evoke strong emotion.

How Love Is Spelt is written by Chloë Moss, whose previous writing credits include BBC's Dickensian and This Wide Night, which was performed at the Soho Theatre.

Moss is joined by Charlotte Peters as director, with details on a further creative team and casting for the production to be announced at a later date.  

How Love Is Spelt will open on 4th September for a limited engagement of four weeks, with a press night on 6th September.

How Love Is Spelt is at Southwark Playhouse from 4th to 28th September.
