2011 Edinburgh Fringe

'I was doing the dishes at home, pretending I was Jason's wife and I'd just cooked him his favourite tea, sausage, egg and chips.' Northern England, 1990s: posters cover the walls of a small single bedroom. Helen in a baggy Take That T-Shirt and cycling shorts sits on the bed. Cut to August 2011: Robbie is about to take to the stage with his old/new band Take That. Taketh Me Away is a hilarious, yet heartbreaking story about Helen's obsession with Jason Orange, three beautiful boys and fat Gary. 'You see they weren't just a band to me.'
