Brooke has it all: the job, the flat, the girlfriend… but what happens when things go tits up just before your 30th birthday?
Hopeless romantic Brooke is the algorithm writer for a dating app - she literally codes attraction - so when she finds herself unexpectedly single, she decides to give the science of love (online dating) a chance. A bisexual Bridget Jones for the online generation, this tragicomic one-woman show and its lovably hapless heroine is for anyone who’s ever felt like they were too much, and not enough at the same time.
‘ASTONISHINGLY ASSURED AND PRACTICALLY BROADCAST READY.’

REVIEWS
“…astonishingly assured and practically broadcast-ready… it’s sweet, sad and, as performed by Clark herself, full of heart – with more than a touch of Miranda Hart too. By rights it should have reached Fleabag-sized audiences by next summer.”

“Clark portrays each phase of Brooke’s journey toward self-acceptance with a bracing honesty and fearlessness. She is a talented solo performer... insightful, hilarious, and even a little bit heartbreaking, Algorithms is definitely worth a top spot on your Fringe Festival to-do list.”
