Two brothers, rag and bone men in Hull, have been apart for a year since their father passed away.
Reunited now, skint and grieving, they are back on the rounds with the horse and cart.
Sat side-by-side but a world apart, they have money to earn and things to talk about, but no idea how to do either.
All plays will be performed script-in-hand, by professional actors, after a short rehearsal period.
-
Themes of loneliness and isolation. Discussions of grief throughout. Mentions of mental health, death and classicism with strong language.
Age recommendation 14+, with parental discretion. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
