Playwright and Drama Worker

Commissioned by Worcester Swan Theatre's Next Generation Youth Theatre Group

Written by Lance Woodman

First production directed by Mel Humphries

A short play for 25 young people (though doubling up is possible for smaller casts).

First performed in the Swan's studio from 28-30 March, 2001.

now was written working closely with the Swan Theatre's senior youth theatre group (age 14-18). It concerns the fears and desires that colour their day to day life. The play has a fast moving, fragmentary structure and requires chorus work and movement skills. It contains plenty of individual moments to give every actor a feature scene or two.

A reading script is available on request.
