★★★★

Carrying the weight of the world in his JD sports bag, a working class lad trades his council estate and stoner mates for a one way ticket to the capital. 

​

Combining theatre, comedy, spoken word and original songs, GROWING PAINS follows a young man's journey from heartache to redemption against the backdrop of Ladbrokes, broke lads, and shit dads.

This "ambitious and vivid" (The Stage) production was winner of Ideas Tap Innovators award in 2016,  enjoying a sell-out run at the Edinburgh Fringe festival to critical acclaim. The show toured the UK in 2017/18 and was published by Playdead Press.
