  In a small-town in Ireland late at night, a minibus is parked around the corner from the local chipper. Brian, the owner of the van, has been recently kicked out of the house by his wife and he’s about to bed down for the night, when he gets an unexpected call from his thirty-something sons: Dara, who still lives in the family home; and Ray, who works in finance in Zurich. The boys  need a lift home after a night of heavy drinking. When it’s revealed that Dara has tried to persuade Ray to go with him to his ex-girlfriend’s flat to “give her a scare” the three men are forced to deal with each other in a way they’ve never had to before in order to prevent Dara from doing something he’ll regret for the rest of his life. An immersive play written to be staged inside a parked 17-seater taxi minibus.
