I'm making a decision.
I'm changing things.
This is it.
Three old friends in their mid-twenties.
One remarkable day.
For Ted, Danny and Charlotte, it's time to seize control.
Make a difference.
Change things.
This is it.
A day trip through the parks and raves and cafes of South London, where life is what you make it.
The rapid fire words of Kae Tempest paint a picture of lives less ordinary in an unforgiving world, sound-tracked by an exhilarating score.
The drama mixes rap-style poetry delivered with microphones and self-reflexive addresses to the audience.
A play about love, life and losing your mind, and the first play from one of the UK's most exciting performance poets, Kae Tempest.
