About
Karen, 17, on her parents: loving and lovable; secret devotees of University Challenge. Oh, and they’re cops.
Karen’s parents, on Karen: fearless cycling champion; a sweet-natured young lady.
Karen's parents are worried. She won’t come out of her bedroom. Which is odd, given she’s such a go-getter. Odder still is what she’s doing in there…
A poignant rites-of-passage story from acclaimed writer Jon Welch.
Reviews of ‘Bike’ at the Edinburgh Fringe: “Beautifully realised by a terrific cast, it’s a piece of perfection from writer, Jon Welch.” “A stunning piece.
Draws the audience in with a light but sure touch, then turns on a sixpence to move through the darkest of territory before an astonishing and beautiful coup de theatre.”
