What’s the story of One Day? In the show, Emma and Dexter first meet on the night of their graduation from Edinburgh University, 15th July 1988 – St. Swithin’s Day. Over the next twenty years we return to them on the same day each year, and through joy and heartbreak, missed opportunities and second chances, they navigate love, ambition, and the unpredictable twists of life.
