About this ebook
A one-man comedy-drama from critically acclaimed writer Alan Harris.
When you’re a small-time drug dealer in Cardiff, it’s tough living up to your family’s expectations. Marc spends his time avoiding his mum, disguising his cannabis plants with fake tomatoes, and bailing out his old man, who owes £6,000 to local loan shark Oggy.
When Marc meets Lisa for the first time in years, things get even messier. Lisa wants Marc. Only, Oggy wants Lisa. Marc just wants to survive the day.
Sugar Baby premiered at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2017, in a production by Dirty Protest in Paines Plough’s pop-up theatre, Roundabout.
