BACON
By Sophie Swithinbank, directed by Matthew Iliffe, produced by HFH Productions
It's Year 10's first day back at school. Mark is new and too scared to make friends; Darren is out of control and too scary to make friends. The two of them need each other – but neither would ever admit it.
The return of Sophie Swithinbank’s multi-award-winning play, Bacon is an unflinching and unexpectedly humorous look at masculinity, sexuality and power, through the dizzying lens of youth.
Winner of the Tony Craze Award and 3 Off-West End Awards for Best Director and Best Performance in a Play. First performed at The Finborough Theatre, London
