Short play about football, gentrification, struggles of adolescence.

Not bad, but nothing special tbh

saw a production of this at the bush theatre in london. raw. 10/10 production. insane exploration of masculinity in lower income british neighborhoods facing gentrification. crazy how they can stage fight choreography so well in the round.

i definitely recommend watching this one over reading it unless you’re familiar with the dialect spoken in south london, it’s written the way it’s spoken.

definitely not something I would choose myself, but I enjoyed it. I liked it, but at times felt that some of the language used was really out of place for the characters.

Ich bin wirklich ratlos, wie ich dieses Kurzdrama im nächsten Schuljahr unterrichten soll (ist Pflichtlektüre in Niedersachsen)… Und ich stehe mit Ideen wirklich nicht oft auf dem Schlauch.
