Mark Wheeller’s Legal Weapon tells the fictional story of a sixth form couple ‘Andy and Jazz’. The production confronts the issues of excessive speed, peer pressure and attitudes amongst young drivers. Using tight stylised physical theatre techniques, which take the audience through a roller coaster of emotions, it is a powerful and emotive road safety drama that moves at a blistering pace. It shows that they need to combine newly acquired skills with a safe, responsible attitude towards driving if they are not to put themselves and other vulnerable road users at risk.
This drama, combined with other educational initiatives, emphasizes the fact that driving skills alone are not enough to keep young drivers out of danger. The aim is to drive home the impact of death on the road.
The play is targeted at age 16-18 year old students. However, it is relevant and enjoyable to all from this age upwards and indeed to their parents
