A road movie for the stage, following two young lads from Motherwell on their trip from dislocation to location.
Alex and Brian are a pair of Scottish smalltown boys going nowhere, who get out the only way they know how – doing a runner with a prized surfboard in the only transport available: a worn-out Lada. But the surfboard belongs to Binks, Alex's psychopathic gangster boss, and he's hot on their heels as they head north for Thurso – where the surf is up all year round.
Stephen Greenhorn's play Passing Places was premiered at the Traverse Theatre, Edinburgh, in 1997.

REVIEWS:
"Tremendous new comedy."
Herald
"Greenhorn conveys all the wonders and frustrations of life on the road. Passing Places is another in a growing body of Scottish plays seeking out answers to a spiritual lack with grace and good humour."
The Guardian
