Street Trilogy : Car/Raw/Kid (Oberon Modern Playwrights)

The plays in O’Connell’s trilogy portray the vulnerable and the violent as they lash out against the world around them. From the adrenaline-fuelled anarchy of a car theft and the ritualized violence of teenage gangs, to the new beginning offered by a baby in the womb, life on the dirty side of the tracks is shown without compromise or sentimentality.
