PERFORMANCE

You get up. You go about your business. You expect to come back.

Random is an urgent, hard hitting drama about a day in the life of an ordinary family who are forced to face the sudden, shattering loss of their young brother and son. One female actor transforms into brother to sister, mother to father through a constant flow of poetic prose, propelling us through the aftermath of inexplicable violence. 

Random is a reminder that behind any act of violence there is a story, a face, a family left to pick up the pieces.

“debbie tucker green has a poet’s feel for rhythm, a keen ear for urban patois, and the knack of telling a story elliptically, with vivid flecks of detail” The Independent, UK
