The Silence and the Noise
Description
I could hurt you, you know? I could hurt you, and maybe I want to.
Daize has a sharp tongue and a sharper blade. Ben has killer trainers and not much else. She's determined to protect her mum from his drug-dealing boss – but can two neglected teenagers change their destinies?
These natural enemies start to find something in each other no adult has ever given them.
Winner of the 2021 Papatango Prize, Tom Powell's extraordinary play beautifully portrays two young people finding hope together.
This edition is published as a single text for the first time to coincide with the UK tour in 2026.
