NHB Modern Plays

Lifers

Inside the walls of HMP Drummond, Baxter, Norton and Lenny pass the time with poker, banter, and the kind of gallows humour only lifers can muster.

When Lenny's body starts to give out, young prison officer Mark keeps an eye on him. What begins as a duty of care becomes an unexpected friendship, exposing the cracks in a system built to punish, not to support.

Darkly funny and unflinchingly honest, Evan Placey's Lifers challenges what we think we know about crime, punishment, and redemption. Do some crimes make a second chance impossible? And when the world moves on without you, what does justice really mean?

A compelling look at ageing, and the stories we tell ourselves to survive, Lifers is premiered at Southward Playhouse, Borough, in 2025.
