Abstract
A group of young graduates share a nicely renovated terrace house in Brixton, London…while the local black population riots in the street…the others proceed to party on while turning upon one of their number converting a communal household into a vicious psychological battle. Roles: an ideologically sound, aspiring journalist, a conscientious law student, a free-loading part-time model, an unemployed English graduate who enjoys shopping and Lou Reed, the promiscuous, style-obsessed lead singer in a “new romantic” band, along with the national organiser of the U.K. Frisbee Foundation. The play deals with the privileged ’80s generation “who appropriate images of terror and misery to create a new fashion” and will draw on “techniques developed by the Joint Stock Company and Mike Leigh”.
