This has upset a lot of people but it hasn't upset Tom. Or, rather, it has upset him, but in ways he can't explain and other people can't understand. You see, Tom and Luke were never friends. In fact, Tom didn't really like Luke at all. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSo it's an odd decision - to try and bury Luke in the pavement of the Tunstall Estate where he was killed. But to Tom, it sort of makes sense, in a stupid-weird kind of way. As he sleeps out on the pavement, he comes across planning officials, tramps, undertakers, police officers, sisters, mothers, estate agents, ghosts, pavement elephants, sky dragons and a strange lad called Tight who wants to sell him a Travelcard. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWritten specifically for young people, \u003ci\u003eBurying Your Brother in the Pavement\u003c\/i\u003e was part of the 2008 National Theatre Connections Festival and was premiered by youth theatres across the UK.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJack Thorne\u003c\/b\u003e's previous plays include \u003ci\u003eBunny\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eFanny and Faggot\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eStacey\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eWhen You Cure Me\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003e2nd May 1997\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eMydidae\u003c\/i\u003e.
