THEATRE: HIM - Back by popular demand - HIM & Exclusive Discount for WLQP Members
Back for an extended run: HIM. Running October 19th to 30th at Union Theatre.
HIM – a new play by Natalie Ekberg
What happens when a decision made sixteen years ago for all the right reasons becomes impossible to leave in the past?
When Jane unexpectedly becomes pregnant with Charlie's child, they make an unconventional decision: Charlie will raise the baby with his male partner, Osmond, while Jane will not be part of the family. Sixteen years later, the consequences of that decision begin to surface.
Funny, intimate and morally complicated, HIM explores love, parenthood, identity, loyalty, secrets and the complicated ways in which we create family.
Following a sold-out pilot, the play returns for a limited run at London's Union Theatre.
Dates: 19–30 October 2026
Venue: Union Theatre
Address: 229 Union Street, London SE1 0LR

Written by: Natalie Ekberg

The production will particularly appeal to audiences interested in contemporary new writing, LGBTQ+ stories and modern family relationships, while its central questions around parenthood, love, regret and the consequences of our choices have a much broader resonance.
