Papatango Theatre Company and Pentabus present

The Silence and the Noise

By Tom Powell

Daize has a sharp tongue and a sharper blade. Ben has killer trainers and not much else. She’s determined to protect her mum from his drug-dealing boss – but can two neglected teenagers change their destinies?

These natural enemies start to find something in each other no adult has ever given them. 

Winner of the 2021 Papatango Prize from over 1,400 scripts, Tom Powell’s extraordinary play beautifully portrays two young people finding hope together.
