'I saw the ghost of Christmas future.You, her, a double buggy and a council flat flashed in front of my eyes.'
Somebody's
Son was the 2012 play by award winning writer Marcia Layne. A
powerful, funny and heart breaking story about three teenage boys
Darnell, Kieran and Anthony. They make music together, play on the
school teams together and are failing together. They're tight friends
until Rochelle and Angel come a along, challenging everything they
thought they knew about each other and themselves. What you see isn't
always what you get in this surprising coming of age drama.
Suitable for 13+ and adult audiences.
