In a rundown corner of Kings Cross, two men are meeting for the first time. Tom has £800 and there is just one thing he wants to buy. The only person who can sell it to him is a crackhead called D. But the crackhead has other plans.
The world premiere of Dominic Leyton’s play was a huge success in London attracting rave reviews and marked the BSC’s debut with the British Council when it was picked by BC to tour to Malta, beginning a new long-term relationship.
"Tough social analysis meets hilarious sexual politics in Leyton's lurid debut. Nathan Constance (Footballer's Wives) gives a virtuoso performance...he deserves an Oscar."
"This is a stunning first play. Leyton explores a crackhead's situation with enormous compassion and humour. A remarkable debut - congratulations to The Birmingham Stage Company for bringing his work to public attention."
"The ambition of COLLISION is genuinely astonishing. It is not to be missed."
"The Birmingham Stage Company has scored again with one of the funniest plays in recent years. Electrifying performances in a darkly, shockingly funny production that deserves to transfer to our TV screens via the West End."
"A stunning debut by Dominic Leyton, full of sharply observed wit and dark humour. At 80 minutes, the pace never slackens, leaving you craving more!"
"Leyton's script is remarkable - positively Tarantino-esque and massively enhanced by three fantastic performances from Constance, Foster and McBlain."
"The most gripping piece of new theatre I've seen in years!"
