NIGHT TWO - Saturday 21st February

Goth
devised and performed by The Goth project

' Anyone who looks different gets called a Goth now . . . they just shout at you in the street!' explained a boy in a corset and black eyeliner, over the music of the gig.
So, that’s how it started, the idea to make a play. Several months later, a group of individuals, many who had not been involved in drama before, came up with Goth, a new comedy about the joy of being different.
Oliver has the same problems as any other teenager . . . getting a girlfriend, finding the right black lipstick . . . trying to convince the police he’s not a terrorist threat!!!
