Wicked fun for all ages. Trust.

Brighton is known for its young, thriving, fresh nightlife, but what about the youth of today that are too young for the pub and club culture? Have you ever wondered what the gangs that congregate on street corners get up to when the sun sets on the pier?

"Whatever" unravels the tale of a variety of these lost souls, stretching across the class and race boundaries to provide an amazingly honest and accurate vision of their plight.

It's a modern take on the youth of today and their interaction and the issues that they have to face. An ideal focus point for dinner parties as much as your GCSE class. (it's all about your GCSE's).

Gritty realistic topics given the "Whatever" treatment include drugs, being a pikey with black sheep syndrome, peer pressure, fathering a child with a Kevin and bad girl pom pom bashings, all on the mean streets of Brighton.

A modern-day classic, using hip-hop and rap yet still being accessible to all, despite the brushing of fringes with a toothbrush and a bad shrek lookalike MC.
