Pr�sentation de l'�diteur :

Adapted for stage, Apples is set on a Middlesbrough council estate, this astonishing piece of writing by 23 year old Richard Milward, is an electrifying collision of Irvine Welsh and Virginia Woolf. Streams of poetic, impassioned and often hilarious words pour from five fifteen year olds as they negotiate a world where the adults are absent, drugs are everywhere, sex is desperate and life is both terrifying and thrilling. A dazzling, tragicomic love story of adolescence based on the astonishing debut novel by Richard Milward. Shameless, ruthless and intensely poetic, Apples articulates what it is like to be young. APPLES which won a coveted Bank of Scotland Herald Angel Award at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival last week which is awarded for excellence in the Edinburgh Festival.

Revue de presse :

'An astonishing debut... It is Catcher in the Rye meets the Arctic Monkeys.' --Times Magazine

superb stage version of Richard Milward's debut novel... It's a funny-sad, ugly-beautiful night out, nicely performed by its young cast and swirling with the sweaty, dirty poetry of everyday life. 4 stars --Lyn Gardner, The Guardian

[a] neat, pacey production ... A rollercoaster ride through adolescence in all its frantic, anxious, smeary, glittering glory. --Alice Jones, The Independent
