So Here We Are

Frankie’s gone and no one wants to talk about it.

Smudge, Pugh, Pidge and Dan have just returned from the funeral of their best friend and fifth five-a-side football team member. Waiting for Frankie’s girlfriend Kirsty to arrive they wrestle with the tragedy of the situation, unable to confront their grief in any healthy way. Luke Norris’s “So Here We Are” is a play about what can happen when nothing happens, a compassionate look at young lives cut short and a touching portrait of childhood friendships under strain in adult life.
