"You will come back though won't yere, Darren? Yer will come back? Say yer'll come back. Come back."

Lucy is 17. She dreams of love, security and a bright future. But
first she must confront reality - and reality means deciding who to
trust.

Leo Butler won the 2001 George Devine Award for REDUNDANT. His first
play, MADE OF STONE, produced in the Royal Court Young Writers'
Festival 2000, was praised for its "rock-hard characterisation with
buzzing dialogue" (Evening Standard).
