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.
