DESCRIPTION

A funny and foreboding play about what happens when gaming and military technology collide.


A funny and foreboding play about what happens when gaming and military technology collide.

Seventeen-year-old student Adrian has a serious habit - playing military shooters on his computer games console. Single mum Maggie wants him to study Classics at uni and stop locking himself in his room pwning* n00bs**.

With the help of computer geek Tom, Maggie deciphers gaming lingo in an attempt to reconnect with Adrian. But when a revolutionary new technology Tom has invented gets picked up by the Ministry of Defence, their lives are
rocketed from the virtual to the actual battlefield.

Paul Jenkins' play First Person Shooter was first staged at Birmingham Repertory Theatre in 2010.
