Independent DC Moore is a very special talent and the perfect writer to give voice to a generation of young people for whom the first step on the career path is to realise that there no longer is one. Channel 4 Head of Drama, Piers Wenge Moore pulls it all off via some brilliantly raucous comic writing. From the bewildered squaddies of The Empire to the nihilistic office worker in Honest up-and-comer Moore has a killer eye for the neuroses of the British everybloke, which he lovingly amplifies, exaggerates and dissects Time Out It casts its coolly intelligent gaze towards the future of our planet and out into deep space, while posing fundamental questions about human existence ... the writing is engrossing and spikily stylish ... the play reverberates around the mind long afterwards.
