Set in post-riot Teesside, "Tenner Bag" is a raw and gripping drama about family, survival, and the dark underbelly of a town on the brink. When Becky returns home after five years in America for a funeral, shes forced to confront the fractured family she left behind, her depressed father, a mother in denial, and her brother Simon, a sharp-witted but volatile drug dealer balancing loyalty, violence, and the ghosts of his own wasted potential. As tensions simmer in a town still reeling from racial unrest, Becky struggles to reconnect with a place she barely recognizes, while Simons world of fast cash and dangerous alliances threatens to implode. With crackling dialogue, dark humor, and brutal honesty about crime, addiction, and identity, this is a play about the ties that bind and the ones that choke.
