Passing Places by Stephen Greenhorn

A road movie for the stage, following two young lads from Motherwell on their trip from dislocation to location. Alex and Brian are a pair of Scottish smalltown boys going nowhere, who get out the only way they know how – doing a runner with a prized surfboard in the only transport available: a worn-out Lada. But the surfboard belongs to Binks, Alex's psychopathic gangster boss, and he's hot on their heels as they head north for Thurso – where the surf is up all year round. Stephen Greenhorn's play Passing Places was premiered at the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh, in 1997.

'Tremendous new comedy'

* Herald *

'Greenhorn conveys all the wonders and frustrations of life on the roadPassing Places is another in a growing body of Scottish plays seeking out answers to a spiritual lack with grace and good humour'
