And they know better than to lay a fucking finger on you. See? You are safer here with me, than you have ever been.âÇÖ LiamâÇÖs 17 years old, loves Dr Who and has lost his mum. He has had to move from London to Wales, to the valleys, to the middle of nowhere, to live with a dad he doesnâÇÖt know.

We think we know her, but we donâÇÖt know the half of it. EffieâÇÖs life spirals through a mess of drink, drugs and drama every night, and a hangover worse than death the next day - till one night gives her the chance to be something more.

Mrs Reynolds is a little old lady. Jay is a troubled youth. When he vandalises her lovingly tended garden, the authorities send him back to help her fix it. It seems a recipe for disaster - but human beings are more complex than the headlines.Love Steals us from Loneliness:áA play about the stupid things you do when youâÇÖre f*cked. A night out. Friends, alcohol, a shit club, a strop - the usual. But tonight is different. Tonight will change things forever. Gary Owen, one of WalesâÇÖs foremost playwrights, returns to his hometown of Bridgend. The media have told us their Bridgend story, but what will a writer who spent his own teenage years here have to say?
