Pay What You Can

Bottleneck by Luke Barnes with Ben Parsley

Am I a virgin? I think I am. It was floppy and wasn’t nice, so I think I’m a virgin. I’m going to say I am. Will look better on my uni application! Liverpool, 1989. Greg is fourteen, just started secondary school. Liverpool FC are everything. A vibrant coming-of-age story about becoming a man through adventures big and small. It is about a notorious city, and football. How the world views it, and how it views the world.

Spine by Clara Brennan, with Kirstie Brough

A hilarious, pan-generational and heart-breaking call to arms for our modern age. Spine charts the explosive relationship between a ferocious, wise- cracking teenager and an elderly East End widow.

Mischievous activist pensioner Glenda is hell-bent on leaving a political legacy and saving Amy from the scrapheap. In this era of austerity, what can be fought for? Amy is about to find out.

Two stunning and tear-inducing modern dramas, to surprise audiences. Age 16+
