Summary
Part of the "in-yer-face" movement in 1990s British theatre that dealt frankly with issues of sex and violence as well as pointedly challenging societal values, this play follows five characters conducting hedonistic, self-destructive lives in a grim microcosm of drugs, shoplifting, prostitution, and sexual adventure, reflecting a society corrupted by consumerism and in a state of moral decline.
