Everybody has dreams, and my dream has always been easy to say, and nearly impossible to achieve.

I want to be the biggest Grime MC in the country. I know what it takes: shell down raves, spin the opposition, and never take my foot off the pedal. Every environment is moodier than the last, but every opportunity to shine has to be taken.  

I’m built for this, but there’s always more in this life. What happens when your biggest rival becomes your best friend? How do you prepare for a battle that doesn’t involve the mic and the decks?”  

The return of the unmissable hit play from award-winning writer Casey Bailey – Birmingham Poet Laureate 2020 – 2022. Directed by Birmingham Rep’s Deputy Artistic Director Madeleine Kludje.  

A Birmingham Rep Production in Association with Leeds Playhouse
