A new play by multi award winning Lin Coghlan.

“Dartford. Hastings. Margate by the sea.”

Robbie wants nothing more than to be a grown up, and live with his sister Cel. Cel wants to go to university and find the kind of love her mother never had. They both want to be free from the care system.

Follow these siblings as they take on the complexities of growing up in care whilst navigating early adulthood.

Please see show warnings – pastoral support is available throughout the show.
