What I Learned from Johnny Bevan by Luke Wright
Johnny Bevan, a whip-smart, mercurial kid from a council estate, saves Nick from living his father's safe life, but it ends tragically. Years later, a world-weary Nick is reminded of their friendship. Can Johnny save Nick again? Luke Wright makes his theatre debut with a verse play about friendship, class and a bad idea for a festival.
