Valentine’s Day doesn’t always go according to plan—and that’s exactly what makes Who Likes Love? so much fun.
Made Up Theatre invites Fremont audiences to celebrate the ups and downs of romance with this fast-moving comedy, playing Feb. 13 and 14. Who Likes Love? explores the highs, lows and hilariously awkward moments of dating and relationships. Directed by Iu-Hui Chua, the show blends physical storytelling with smart comedy. “Love is messy, vulnerable and sometimes ridiculous,” Chua says. “This show leans into that and finds the joy in it.”
The show stars Bobby August Jr. and Jessica Bettencourt. August, an actor and improviser, has appeared in television, film and stage productions.

“We wanted to give people a unique way to celebrate Valentine’s Day,” August says with a laugh. “Whether you’re single, in a relationship or just love to laugh at the craziness of romance, there’s something in this show for everyone.”
Bettencourt is a New York-trained actor and comedian. “I love how honest this piece is,” she says. “It doesn’t try to define love—it just shows how strange and funny it can be when people try to connect.”
Who Likes Love? promises an evening filled with big laughs and just enough heart to make Valentine’s weekend truly memorable.
