Ten Storey Love Song

This play follows Bobby the Artist's rise to stardom and horrific drug psychosis, Johnnie's attempts to stop thieving and start pleasing Ellen in bed, and Alan Blunt, a forty-year-old truck driver who spends a worrying amount of time patrolling the grounds of the local primary school. A ferocious slab of concrete prose, peppered with beauty and delivered with glorious abandon.
