Taylor is a 16-year-old schoolboy from London, living in a small flat with his single-parent mum. Lonely, frustrated and lacking direction in life, he finds himself striking up an unlikely friendship with the postman, Alex. After witnessing Alex expertly confront Taylor’s school bullies, Taylor persuades Alex to teach him how to box. But following an explosive misunderstanding between the two new friends, Taylor then sets out on a spiral of destruction, alienating the few supportive people he has in his life. Determined to turn a corner and make amends, Taylor summons up the courage to attend an LGBT boxing night at Alex's gym. To his relief, Alex is there waiting for him, their argument forgotten. Gradually, Taylor’s Mum sees her boy start to shine.

In a run-down community hall on the edge of town, a woman has been cooking lunch for those in need. A choir is starting up, run by a volunteer who’s looking for a new beginning. A mother is seeking help in her fight to keep her young daughter from being taken into care. An older man sits silently in the corner, the first to arrive, the last to leave. Outside the rain is falling. Alexander Zeldin’s new play is another uncompromising theatrical experience that goes to the heart of our uncertain times.
