DOORS 6PM // KITCHEN OPEN // SHOW STARTS 7:30 PM Human Love Quest is a live onstage dating show, presented by friends Xander Allan, Conor Gallacher, The Captain and Dr. Gretta, that brings the golden age of television dating shows into the future! The future being now! Today! Marketed as being the antithesis of dating apps, HLQ uses a classic trope of three hopefuls vying for the attention of one solo contestant. It is all-inclusive and anyone is encouraged to apply, regardless of how someone identifies, their age group, or what they’re looking for out of an encounter. Stop staring at a screen and let us make your dream! Come true that is. With the additions of an homage to Dolly Doctor (romance advice segment “Things Can Only Get Gretta”) and our own live reading out of submitted  love notes from secret admirers in the audience, (“Ahoy There”), you’re guaranteed a night of quality entertainment, as heart-warming as it is hilarious. How it works in a nutshell: There are two rounds of dating and each paired-up couple will receive a complimentary bottle of bubbles and a private seat downstairs at the Brunswick Artists Bar, away from prying eyes but also in a comfortable public space. There is absolutely no pressure to see each other again after the show, and we do everything we can to make everyone feel as safe and comfortable as possible while the show is in progress. We have a zero-tolerance policy against intolerant and anti-social behaviour, and the expression of interest form that all contestants/hopefuls are required to fill out features a vetting process that will ensure every round will feature like-minded humans. If you’re sick of the dehumanisation and apathetic repetition of scrolling through dating apps on your couch, occasionally swiping right, and eventually having a stunted conversation of small talk before never meeting up with each other, then come on down to human love quest. Putting the human back into actual human interaction since 2021. So please fill out the application form via the link below if you would like to be a contestant, and we will endeavour to accommodate as many people and preferences as we possibly can. https://forms.gle/E9qc5o283rFvERnv6 TICKETING INFO Please have a digital or printed copy of your ticket ready on arrival along with a valid photo ID.
