Dinner with Dylan
4 Extra Debut. Three Bobaholics – people addicted to all things Bob Dylan - meet to chat about life’s meaning and Dylan. Stars Richard Curtis.
"My name’s Jon Canter and I’m a Bobaholic. That means I’m addicted to the songs and mystery of Bob Dylan. But it’s an addiction from which I never want to recover, because it’s sustained and nourished and challenged me for nearly 50 years.
There are millions of people like me and this play is dedicated to them. But it’s also dedicated to the people who know and love Bobaholics and have to live with their addiction, which isn’t always easy."
Drama about three grown men - Bobaholics - who meet in a restaurant to chat about the meaning of life and Dylan.
It's set in 2017, in the week when Dylan played a series of shows at the London Palladium and after an accidental meeting between playwright Jon Canter and writer and producer Richard Curtis.
