“It swirls.
The circles—
coz it just goes round and round what I did.
It haunts me—“
At a young offenders institute, Tate is one day away from transfer to adult prison. On his penultimate day, he and his fellow inmates are showcasing their handmade quilts when buried truths begin to unravel and explode.
This new play by Rebecca Jade Hammond explores the collision between toxic masculinity and the perceptions of femininity, in order to pose the impossible question; is redemption ever possible?
