Stewart Pringle on The Bounds

Quote of the day: “Anyway, the play didn’t write itself. It wrote itself for about thirty pages and ran out of road. I was really pleased with my two characters, but I didn’t have a story. I knew it wasn’t going to be ‘about’ football, but what was it going to be about?” (Stewart Pringle’s ‘A Word from the Writer’ in his The Bounds)
