Beskrivning
He says they all do it. These kids, you know, they’ve got their phones. Film everything. Can’t say I blame them. I would at that age.Seventeen-year-old Jack is the apple of his mother’s eye. His parents, Di and David, have devoted their lives to giving him every opportunity they never had. As a result, Jack is smart, outgoing, and well on his way to achieving the grades to study Law at Durham University.But a startling incident outside the school gates threatens to ruin everything they’ve striven for: an incident that suggests a deep hatred of their son. As events begin to accelerate, Di and David start to doubt Jack’s closest friends, Jack himself, and ultimately themselves – who can they trust?In a world where smartphones are ubiquitous, James Fritz’s deeply provocative and topical drama throws a light on the sorts of insidious opportunities new technology offers – where nothing dies online, except reputation.Four Minutes Twelve Seconds was runner-up for the Verity Bargate Award in 2013. It received its world premiere at Hampstead Theatre in the Downstairs space on 2 October 2014.

James Fritz confirms himself as a writer going places in this fascinatingly slippery play in which moral certainties collapse and relationships unravel . . . it's this cleverly structured four-hander that confirms [James Fritz] as a writer going places. . . . a fascinatingly slippery play in which perceptions and sympathies constantly shift. . . . Often shockingly funny and full of little ambiguities, this drama deals in how we see ourselves and others - and make judgments. . . . Fritz deals well with the subtleties of class. . . . a punchy, thoughtful evening
