Rob is the only one in his group of so-called-friends that doesn’t drink. He prefers to read, so they give him a really hard time about it and make out that he must be gay not to want to get drunk and chase after women. In essence he is bullied but is resilient and tries to not let them get to him but he’s adamant he won’t go drinking with them, so they leave him to it.
Sticky, isn’t your typical teenage girl either, she prefers to write poetry and be by herself, but such is life, anyone that’s a little different from the norm, gets picked on and she’s no exception.
Having been ridiculed in class today she wants to be by herself and goes to a secluded spot in the woods where she goes to chill and calm herself down. Rob has the same idea; and often goes to the same spot. They meet and at first things are awkward but then a common cause develops between them. Two of the girls from Sticky’s class turn up when Rob’s gone and start to bully her and Rob comes back and stops it. One of the girls is dating the leader of the gang that gives Rob such a hard time and they go and tell him what’s happened and he turns up to confront Rob with startling unexpected results.

Frequently asked questions
Can we try before we buy?
Of course! All our plays and pantomimes have a free Preview Script available for download as an A4 pdf file that contains 60-75% of the full script. If you like what you read then you can buy an inexpensive e-script of the entire play (typically less than half the cost of a traditional printed script) which is licensed to you for your personal use. Purchasing a script copying licence allows you to make just enough copies to support rehearsals and performances.
All our musicals are included in our perusal service. Through this, representatives of producing organisations can request a USB Stick of perusal material which comprise the script/libretto and piano/vocal score as PDF files; a Cast (or Studio) Recording as MP3 files and (where available) an MP4 file video of either the premiere production or of a subsequent production.
Some titles have the facility to read the entire script online on our website.
Do we need a Licence To Perform?
The simple answer is, yes.
Under the international laws of copyright, you must be in possession of a valid, unexpired licence before performing any piece of theatre unless the owner or managers of the copyright has waived their rights.
Why do you insist on providing a formal royalties quotation?
When you request a quotation, it is logged in our system, it forms part of an orderly queue and protects your place in that queue should multiple licensing requests occur for the same show.
