“I hate normal people. Normal people should be eviscerated.”
Tucked away in a library in a Stockport grammar school, half-a-dozen sixth formers, on the cusp of adulthood, are whiling away the hours…
A clatter of teenage thoughts tumble out between the friends. Dreams of Oxbridge, contempt for the locals and of course: sex, sex, sex.
But as exams approach and pressures rise, real brutality emerges from behind their playful barbs. And soon there is nothing left but violence.
From Manchester power-house playwright, Simon Stephens, Punk Rock is a brutal and urgent examination of contemporary adolescence.
Intelligent. Articulate. F***ed.
Age Guidance: 16 +
