Information - Ordinary Decent Criminal
Part of the ‘In the Work’s new festival of contemporary culture for Ipswich
Starring renowned comedian Mark Thomas.
Meet recovering addict Frankie. He’s just been sentenced to three and a half years in jail for dealing drugs. When he gets there, none of his fellow convicts are what they seem.
And with his typewriter, his activist soul, and his sore lack of a right hook, he somehow finds his way into their troubled hearts, and they into his.
In the unlikeliest of places, he discovers that the revolution is not dead. It’s just sleeping.
A new play from the writer of the Fringe First winning England & Son and A Political History of Smack & Crack, Ed Edwards reunites with Mark Thomas to tell a tale of freedom, revolution and messy love. Directed by Paines Plough’s Joint Artistic Director, Charlotte Bennett.
