Tia has been in care since childhood when an older man’s attention begins to look like an escape from everything that has failed her.
First Night is a theatre diary for logging the shows you've seen and discovering what to see next.
Tia is unhappy in foster care and tired of being let down when she meets AJ, an older man who initially seems to offer affection, gifts and a way out. His behaviour turns into threats and abuse, leaving her caught in a pattern he has used before. The arrival of fourteen-year-old Katie gives Tia a new relationship inside a story about grooming and exploitation.
A serious social drama about grooming, exploitation and the failures of systems meant to protect children, keeping Tia’s experience at the centre.
socially focused drama, stories about vulnerable young people, abuse of power and difficult contemporary subjects.
