You see, I learnt at an early age what it was to be angry – angry and helpless. And I can never forget it.

Jimmy Porter is frustrated by his post-war life running a local stall. Embittered by the disapproval of his wife Alison’s wealthier family and a world that has shut him out, he frequently spirals into fits of rage.

One night, when Alison’s friend unexpectedly turns up at their home, this uneasy marriage descends further into freefall, with their friends left trying to keep the peace.

Running alongside Arnold Wesker’s Roots in repertory for 11 weeks, as part of the Almeida’s Angry and Young season.
