Summary

It is Wimbledon fortnight. Away from the public gaze, in a dingy locker-room, two 'unlovely orphan' ball boys are talking of their situation. This witty, clever and sometimes vicious satire on oppression and revolution is by the author of the award-winning play, Destiny. May be played as a double-bill with Blood Sports.
