In ten arguments, William Boyd explores what it is to dispute with those we love and those we claim to love. He looks at our propensity to judge others and our inherent power to cause real pain. He shows how the arguments we have with one another get to the very heart and reality of our relationships.

"We all argue. Why? What strategies so we use? We as a cast have, and you as a person in the audience will, recongise yourself in parts of what you see on stage. This production is a good example of the Lost Sheep Theatre slogan: Inclusive, Creative, Supportive. "
