'He'll look different. My little boy. When I get out. Like... to
the picture I've got in my head. Be like meeting him all over
again. A whole new start.' Instead of GCSEs, Cain, Riyad and Jonjo
got sentences. Locked up in a young offender institution, they
trade sweets, chat shit, kill time - and await fatherhood. Grace's
job is to turn these teenagers into parents, ready to take charge
of their futures. But can they grow up quickly enough to escape the
system? Winner of the 2019 Papatango New Writing Prize, Samuel
Bailey's Shook is a tender and honest play examining the young men
society shuts away. It was premiered by Papatango at Southwark
Playhouse, London, in October 2019, followed by a UK tour. Samuel
Bailey was the winner of the Times Breakthrough Award at the South
Bank Sky Arts Awards 2021.
Liam and Fletch grew up together. Born on the same street. Best
mates since primary. Inseparable. The only difference was while
Fletch was getting suspended from school, Liam was studying. And
now he's going to Oxford. But with Liam gone, who's going to keep
Fletch out of trouble? Sorry, You're Not a Winner explores
aspiration, social mobility and getting caught between classes. It
asks: if 'making it' means leaving everything you know and everyone
you love behind - what's the point? This powerful and striking play
by Samuel Bailey was first produced in 2022 by Paines Plough and
Theatre Royal Plymouth, in association with the University of
Plymouth's School of Society and Culture, before touring
nationally.
