Stephen Greenhorn

Passing Places (NHB Modern Plays) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

A road movie for the stage, this play follows Alex and Brian on their trip from dislocation to location.

Alex and Brian are a pair of smalltown boys going nowhere, who get out the only way they know how - doing a runner with a prized surfboard in the only transport available: a worn-out Lada. But the surfboard belongs to Binks, Alex's psychopathic gangster boss, and he's hot on their heels as they head north for Thurso - where the surf is up all year round.

'tremendous new comedy' - Herald

'Greenhorn conveys all the wonders and frustrations of life on the road. Passing Places is another in a growing body of Scottish plays seeking out answers to a spiritual lack with grace and good humour' - Guardian
