Pressure is mounting in the offices of a high-flying start-up. The printer is broken, a birthday cake has no candles, and a big investor is on his way. Online, however, a series of anonymously published recorded conversations are causing waves that threaten to sink the company and change the lives of all involved.

Snakes And Ladders

Southwark Playhouse Borough

1973, a public lavatory. Nicky shaves his head, watched by an older man.

Publicly, Nicky is a skinhead. And a Neo-Nazi. But right now, in this place, that doesn’t matter.

He’s not the first man Nicky meets in a public toilet, and he won’t be the last…

Spanning twenty years and inspired by a true story, Foam examines the nature of identity and the consequences of right-wing extremist ideology against the backdrop of London’s skinhead and gay scenes of the 1970s and 1980s.
