Speed

In a hotel basement somewhere in Birmingham, three people – a nurse, a delivery driver and an entrepreneur – are attending a speed-awareness course, due to their aggressive driving. Abz, the UK's leading expert on road safety and the most in-demand course facilitator north of the M25, presents them with a choice: change your ways, or lose your licence.

But the training course quickly veers into a tumultuous group therapy session as they are forced to confront the real question: why are we all so angry?

Mohamed-Zain Dada's play Speed is a breakneck journey through the daily annoyances and deep-buried secrets that leave us spinning. Wickedly comic and darkly thrilling, it is first performed at the Bush Theatre, London, in 2025, directed by Milli Bhatia.
