Ecstasy - Description


The play is concerned with Lloyd and Heather's quest for love in the Ecstasy-drenched nightclubs of Edinburgh's early nineties. Both of them have demons to slay, as well as pills to be necked. But the nature of chemical romance means we don't always know how much is chemical and how much is romance. Will our hero and heroine transcend both Scottish stoicism and MDMA extravagance, to tap into the emotional depths of their souls? Or is it just about shagging and having a good time?
