Tom Gill

'If you plant a seed, and treat it like the dirt it’s surrounded by, it’ll grow ugly, like me...'

Trapped in a small town cage, a working class lad trades his baghead mates for a one-way ticket out of Salford. Following its sell-out run at the Edinburgh Festival 2016, critically acclaimed Growing Pains returns to tour the UK.

Combining quick-witted lyricism with original songs, Tom Gill’s explosive drama takes us on a poetic journey against the backdrop of Ladbrokes, broke lads and shit dads. Commissioned by Battersea Arts Centre.

Directed by Matthew Landers.
