    As they are interrogated by an expert, five friends of Peter King wonder why he chose to end his own life, and how they can now continue. A fictional story based on the recollections of real people, Wasp is an exploration of mental illness, and whether those who knew Peter in life can ever find a reason for his death. Wasp is a play that explores the themes of mortality, life and love.

    "Our children live in the most deprived ward in London and their parents cannot afford to pay for the classes and activities many more privileged children enjoy after school and at the weekends.
