About this ebook
‘I want you to remember something… You do what you want with your life. Alright? Break heads if you need to and hearts if you have to, but whatever you do don’t do what I did. Don’t waste yourself.’

'fiercely funny and astutely upsetting... A terrific debut' - Independent
'we’re in the presence, unquestionably, of a playwright of major promise' - Telegraph
'Norris has come up with a fascinating 75-minute play about the differing possibilities of love' - Guardian
