			The [[Folkestone-Hythe Operatic and Dramatic Society]] presented this [[Small Stage Theatre]] production of ''Bad Dates'' on 3rd–5th April 2025 at [[The Tower Theatre]], Folkestone. An amateur production by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd.

			This thoroughly charming and slyly sweet one-woman play is an idiosyncratic journey of self-discovery involving the Romanian mob, a Buddhist rainstorm, a teenage daughter, shoes and a few very bad dates. The action takes place in the bedroom of Hayley's apartment in New York City.

			{{FHODS Foreword
			\| text = I fell in love with ''Bad Dates'' and Hayley the first time I read the script. Watching Emmie breathe life into Hayley has been very special and they are each brave and remarkable women, and I am honoured to have worked with them both. Well, OK — Emmie did the work, Hayley made me laugh and cry, I made the coffee. I hope they bring you as much joy as they have me. Enjoy the show.
