Letter to Boddah
2 Men. A Bomb. A Tesco Toilet.
In the disabled toilet in Tesco, we meet Billy and Neil. Dressed in combats and carrying enough explosives to blow the place sky high, they examine life and attempt to decide whether violence is sometimes the only way to be heard.
Staring Tom Gibbons of Coronation Street and The Archers, and Dean Smith of Waterloo Road and Last Tango in Halifax fame. The chemistry between the two is outstanding. This powerful gritty, chilling, clever drama is a masterclass in tension.
Start 7.30pm
