Eyes Closed, Ears Covered by Alex Gwyther's (Our Friends, The Enemy) tells the brutal and heartfelt story of two teenage boys as they head to Brighton with a daring plan to relive a special day from four years ago. The world premiere of this darkly funny and painfully tender play will be directed by 2015 What's On Stage award winner, Derek Anderson (Sweeney Todd, Twickenham Theatre).
One in five children in the UK have been exposed to domestic violence.

Woking 1986. Monday morning. Seb and Aaron have been planning this day for weeks. They've written their sick notes. They've skimped, saved, scraped and stolen the money where they can. They're actually doing it. They're bunking the day off school.
