Fear of Music

Overview

Luke is the first in his family to go to university, and he s determined to stop his irritating fireball of a brother from following in their father s footsteps by joining the army. In a vivid, detailed and often hilarious 75 minutes, Fear of Music time-bends between 1987 and 1993, piecing together the prelude and aftermath of a tragedy that sees history repeating itself. Packed with beautiful observation and outrageously good jokes, Fear Of Music is a brilliant burst of a play in which two boys with starkly different futures, surrounded by mixtapes, guitars and ambitions, discover how easy it is to get lost in a country that doesn t look after its own.
