good dog, Paperback / softback Book

good dog Paperback / softback

Part of the NHB Modern Plays series

Paperback / softback

Description

‘Everyone gets what they deserve, they have to…’It’s in the window of Sam’s, behind the rusty display.

Two wheels, shiny body, handlebars ready to be gripped.

Mum’s promised him that bike, so even when school or homelife bites, he knows to keep his chin up, his head down and his shirt clean.

No harsh word, no sudden push to the ground, will distract him from growing up to be a good man. Set during the early noughties, Arinzé Kene's good dog is a theatrical monologue that chronicles growing up in a multicultural community, and the everyday injustices that drive people to take back control. Because even the most patient among us can’t wait forever. Delicately observed and fearlessly told, good dog was first produced by tiata fahodzi in association with Watford Palace Theatre in spring 2017.
