Overview
Terry is leaving school with few prospects in his native Liverpool. His
father finds him a job in a local warehouse, but Terry has other ideas.
Living in a dream world promulgated by a radio DJ to whom he listens
constantly, Terry is convinced there is something better and he makes an
angry escape bid. This compelling, compassionate play was transmitted
on Thames Television. Contained in the volume Our Day Out and Other Plays (Oxford
Playscripts) with Our Day Out, Terraces, and I Read the News today,
each of which is also available in a single play edition. To apply for a
