Description: 'Shopping and Fucking' is a witty and shocking look at a corrosive disposable world and a numb, desperate generation. It opened at the Royal Court in 1996 and is central to the Nineties movement sometimes called 'in-yer-face theatre'. Ravenhill takes the names of his four main characters from pop stars and shows them buying, selling and stealing whatever they can - drugs, sex and ready meals.
