Description
When Adele meets Vincent, a young musician with face blindness, it could not come at a worse time. She’s dropped out of law school to care for her father, who after an accident is now beginning to display signs of dementia. And yet, despite all this, she and Vincent begin to slip into the weird and mystifying and wonderful and terrifying process of falling in love. As their relationship develops and deepens, her father’s condition begins to get worse, and suddenly Adele finds herself surrounded by people who, despite knowing her deeply, cannot recognize her. Will Adele and Vincent figure out a way to find each other, see each other, make a life together, and discover how not to be alone?

Press Quotes
“There is a fierce theatrical intelligence at work in [YOU REMIND ME OF YOU] … In Matthew Capodicasa’s play, a nascent romance between Adele and Vincent is hampered by her need to care for her father and a neurological condition which makes Vincent unable to recognise faces. The set-up might sound rather heavy going, and the whole idea could be issue-led and melodramatic. Neither of these things is the case. Instead, from the first moment, there is a beautifully realistic and compelling rhythm … Profoundly satisfying.” —Hugh Simpson, All Edinburgh Theatre
