Description

One Off is a powerful and poignant story about the transformative power of language. Born in Denton Burn, Ric Renton's troubled upbringing led him to spend his young adulthood in prison, but it was during a solitary confinement that he discovered an unexpected passion for words.

In this gripping narrative, three young men - Knox, Brown, and Shepherd - find solace in each other's company within the confines of a prison with one of the highest suicide rates in the country. When a nightwatchman named Jock arrives, he offers them an unexpected way out of their darkness.

With its rich emotional depth and high-energy narrative, One Off is a story that will resonate with anyone who has ever felt trapped or searching for a way out. This edition was published to coincide with the world premiere at Live Theatre in Newcastle, in November 2022.
