Summary:

"This play is not about binge drinking or anonymous sex this play is not about drug overdoses or smoking sixteen cigarettes a day this play is not about fights in the street A and E visits or brothers in prison this play is not about lying to your parents or the police it's not about riots it's not about violence or suicide but it could have been easily."--Page 4 of cover.

"'I'll tell you what gets me riled up, what gets me dark and dirty, what Speaks to the Spiders living in my Soul and makeS me loSe my Shit.' Are you Angry? We are, so we wrote a play and stole a bass guitar which I'm sure we'll fit in somewhere. Written partially in verse; partially in rap but mostly in swear words ANGRY is not quite like anything you've ever seen but quite similar to a lot of different things you may have seen. Join us as we get loud, we get violent, we get furious beyond the government-approved safety level. We will shout at you, we will swear at you, we will spill our rage at the world upon you... but we expect nothing less than the same in return. Winner of The Sunday Times Playwriting Award 2015, ANGRY is the rallying cry of a generation with nothing left to say; part gig, part drinking game and not for the faint of heart."--Publisher's website.

Notes:
