Diesterweg, M Poliakoff, S: City Sugar

DJ Leonard Brazil and one of his young fans, Nicola Davies, live in a world of mass media influence, false promises and disillusionment. Stephen Poliakoffs satirical play City Sugar portrays their dramatic struggle with the cynical backdrop of modern society and exposes the battle of the individual caught in the vicious circles of consumerism. Poliakoffs subtle characterisation and his imaginative presentation of contemporary problems establish him as one of the most remarkable playwrights of the younger generation.
