"You need to see these plays – I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again"  A Younger Theatre

This side of town. The first years of the millennium and Skef's dad is back. Reliving his glory days on the terraces, he stands shoulder to shoulder with his son for the first time as they give it to the Asians. For Skef this isn't about reliving bygone glory but reclaiming all that's fast being stolen by the new insidious scourge all around. But, committed to battling this enemy within, he's in danger of soiling the very thing he s fighting for by violating the very thing he loves.

"Sometimes all you can do is make them see what it is they're doing to you. What they've done to you. What they've turned you into. Sometimes that's all you have left to show."
