Spanning the 1950s to the 1970s, the plays capture the rebellious mood of a post war generation growing up to a backdrop of James Dean, Elvis Presley, sharp suited glamour, hope and despair. John Byrne takes the Paisley slab room he worked in and makes it pure theatre: the scams, the dreams, the aloof but gorgeous girl, the despair of life back home, the mandatory boy chat and pranks where Phil and Spanky explode on to the stage in a larger than life double act.
