Stories From The 428

Description:
My friends and I sat pretty low on the social ladder in the playground, but on the school bus, we killed it. We had this thing called a ‘sauce sandwich’, we’d put gross spreads and sauces between two slices of bread and at the traffic lights we’d peel them apart and slap them down onto someone’s windscreen. Once I threw half a milkshake out the window and once my friend Peter threw a 20" bone into someone’s boat. Interesting things happen on buses, and the theatre project Stories From The 428 has noticed. They’ve asked four directors and eight writers to take the bus and put their experiences on the stage, with a two week time frame. I wonder who’ll play me? – HM
