Wasted

Synopsis/Company

I'm making a decision. I'm changing things. This is it. Three old friends. One remarkable day. For Ted, Danny and Charlotte, it s time to seize control. Make a difference. Change things. This is it. A day glo trip through the parks and raves and cafes of South London, where life is what you make it. The rapid fire words of Kate Tempest paint a picture of lives less ordinary in an unforgiving world, sound-tracked by an exhilarating score. A play about love, life and losing your mind. Kate Tempest is one of the UK's most exciting performance poet, who is also currently serving up a storm in the UK hip-hop scene with her band Sound of Rum. Wasted is Kate's debut play, which premiered at the 2011 Latitude Festival, and features her trademark lyrical ferocity in a dynamic theatrical staging. Age recommendation 16+
