‘See what happens now I’m in trouble. See the awesome power of trouble. Trouble rocks.’ It’s Friday at the Sheriff’s office. Vernon sits in his underpants, staring at his Nikes. His best friend Jesus went and killed all their classmates, then himself. Normal times just ran howling from town.

DBC Pierre’s Booker Prize-winning, darkly riotous, superbly fast-talking adventure hits the stage in a world premiere. It is directed by Rufus Norris whose Afore Night Come at the Young Vic and Festen in the West End both won Evening Standard Awards.
