Punk Rock

By Simon Stephens
Directed by Chris Honer

Set in the library of a Stockport grammar school, this play examines the tensions, rivalries and insecurities experienced by a group of sixth formers during the build up to their mock A-levels. Whilst the evocation of a world dominated by teenage angst proves utterly compelling, the powerful denouement will leave you gasping!

Punk Rock fits in with a pattern of Stephens's plays that, typically, worry away at the stresses of 21st-century life and those headline-grabbing global events that seem so inexplicable – The Scotsman

Please note that this performance contains some strong language.
