Another young boy stabbed too close to home.
Working class means many things now and we all know the stereotypes. It's time to hear the voices behind the 'titles'.

Tobi King Bakare and this theatre deserve a shout-out for such a young, diverse audience. There is so much talk about audiences being full of over 60s and why, why can’t theatres get the crowds in to reflect society in general? Well, I’m happy to say that on a rainy Thursday evening, the theatre was completely full.
