It's been a minute since Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams first set screens alight as Allie and Noah in The Notebook. Still, romance fans are in for a song-and-dance treat when they take their seats at the newly renamed Judi Dench Theatre (still currently operating as The Shaftesbury Theatre) for its UK premiere.

What Is The Notebook About?

Beginning one sweltering summer in 1940s South Carolina, the story chronicles the tumultuous love affair between poor mill worker Noah Calhoun and privileged heiress Allie Hamilton. When Allie's parents discover their tryst, they call him trash, forbid the relationship and announce their departure for Charleston. An angry Noah leaves, and the pair break up.

Though their undeniable bond is buried beneath World War II, Allie's engagement to another man and the ravages of time itself, the smallest ember of passion and true love remains in wait.
