A searing thriller about the naivety of youth and how easily it can be exploited. Tia's mouthy attitude and confident swagger mask the vulnerability in a fourteen-year-old girl whose tough start in life draws her to AJ. Older, good-looking and charismatic, he shows her a kindness that she's never known. Kindness that comes with a price... Phil Davies' debut play Firebird premiered at Hampstead Downstairs, London, in 2015, in a production directed by Edward Hall, before transferring to the Trafalgar Studios in the West End in 2016.
