Everyone has an opinion when it comes to someone else’s relationship. Whether it’s a mate’s questionable situationship or a couple having a very public disagreement, most of us have probably thought we could settle the argument better than they can.
Now, Therapy Out Loud is putting that theory to the test in London. This live comedy show brings three fictional couples into a chaotic therapy session, but there’s a twist: you’re the one who gets to decide their fate. Stay together, call it quits or try something different? You play cupid – the final verdict is in your hands.

What is Therapy Out Loud?
Therapy Out Loud is a fast-paced live comedy show set up as courtroom-style arbitration. Actor couples bring fictional, prescreened disputes before the “Therapist”, a comedian with improv and stand-up credentials playing someone with no qualifications, very firm views on love and some dubious methods. A Bailiff introduces each case and keeps things moving, while the audience acts as cupid turned jury and votes on their phones. Results go up live on screen and nothing’s decided before the room has its say.

Everyone has an opinion on other people’s relationships, and wishes that they could voice it. Here you finally get to put yours to a vote. The three couples bring fictional but all-too-relatable dramas to the sofa, with both sides making their case before the audience decides what happens next. Think forgotten favours, questionable behaviour and arguments that could easily spill into your own group chat.
You’ll vote on your phone after scanning a QR code, with the results revealed live on screen. Alongside the three main therapy sessions, expect quick-fire polls and audience confessions to keep things moving. There’s no awkward getting called on stage, either: the couples are all actors, so you can sit back and judge from the comfort of your seat. The whole thing lasts 60 minutes and is strictly for ages 16 and over, with ID checks at the door. Just don’t be surprised if you end up debating the verdict on your way home.
