A feel-good sitcom-style comedy exploring modern romance and dating in your late 20s.
KB Productions is thrilled to announce the cast of Thanks for Having Me at Riverside Studios, running from 7 - 26 April 2025. Starring Kedar Williams-Stirling as Honey (Netflix’s Sex Education, CBBC’s Wolfblood) Nell Tiger Free as Eloise (HBO’s Game of Thrones, 20th Century Studios’ The First Omen) in her stage debut, Adeyinka Akinrinade as Maya and Keelan Kember as Cashel.
Delving into the chaos of modern dating and the struggles of getting over a breakup, Thanks for Having Me is a lighthearted and upbeat comedy theatre show that centres on two mismatched housemates with wildly different takes on love; Cashel nursing the wounds of a breakup, and his carefree best friend Honey, whose only constant is his refusal to settle down. Also starring Adeyinka Akinrinade (Amazon Prime’s Riches) and rising comedy writer and performer Keelan Kember, the show explores what ‘moving on’ really looks like, through a series of awkward, heartfelt and universally relatable moments.
Writer Keelan Kember said, “I think that at some point in their life, many people will have been, or will in the future be, similar to one of these four characters. They each represent a different take on dating that is reflective of modern life and being a young person, and it is this difference which provides both the tension and the comedy of the play. So anyone who is single I think will enjoy seeing themselves reflected in some sense in the piece, and hopefully find it truthful or cathartic, and anyone who isn't single will thank their lucky stars that they managed to get out alive.”
“A flawless, hilarious and sophisticated comedy play.” - London Fringe Reviews
