This script, as are all Frantic Assembly scripts, is well structured and acts as a programme for the first production of the play. On Frantic Assembly's website there is an extremely useful resource section that allows the reader to get a better understanding of the play. This includes a student pre-production pack, an audience pack and a general resource pack.
The script itself is well written and begins with useful details about the characters and setting, and a timeframe which helps you to visualise the playwright's intentions. It's set in two timeframes: before Bex dies, and the present. It focuses on themes of loneliness, abuse, illness and grief, all relevant to the 21st century audience and showing that it is important to connect with each other. There are detailed stage directions throughout the play, which gives us an insight into the original production.
