“Why's the world so tough? It's like walking through meat in high heels.”

A road, a wild night; a drunken guide, Scullery, conducts a tour of the derelict Lancashire road on which he lives. In this seminal play that gives expression to the road's poverty-stricken inhabitants, we are taken on a journey from the gutter to the stars and back.

This is published to coincide with the revival of Jim Cartwright's 1986 game-changing play to the Royal Court, London in June 2017.
