Becky has not long been living in her flat and has not had much time to get to know her neighbours. One night she is out the back waiting for her new dog to do its business when she runs into her neighbour Sam. Their conversation takes a Beckettian turn when talking shite turns serious: the near-strangers get into some heavy topics, in amongst plenty of bad toilet puns to keep things light. Issey said ‘This competition has given me an opportunity to test the waters as I hadn't given much thought to writing plays before - I'd been focusing on poetry. I have realised that besides this opportunity to showcase my work, I have been given a platform to vocalise important issues to me. Throughout the process, I have discovered that there is something totally different from writing a short story or a poem to the process of writing a script and handing it over to the actors for them to animate. The characters that you sketch out are made complete by the voice actors. I really enjoyed the collaborative aspect: letting someone else voice my words. I hope people can find something they identify with within this play - in whatever sense - and enjoy the company of two new voices nattering at you down the earbuds!
