Fallout

Fallout is a take on modern day London and has been adapted from a play that was originally performed at the Royal Court theatre.

The story centres around a council estate in London and follows the lives of a group of close friends over the course of a few weeks as they face the biggest test of street loyalty in their young lives. A black policeman DC Joe Stephens must return to his old neighbourhood to investigate an unsolved murder and through his character we explore the prejudices and judgements we make towards the black youths on the estate. Is the murder of Kwame a gifted student, the turning point which forces the group to challenge received ideas of respect and responsibility?
