The Year of the Bicycle is a play by Joanna Evans

The original text

A play about Amelia and Andile, children from very different backgrounds, who befriend one another over a garden wall. Ten years later, they have become estranged, and, in separate accidents, fall into a concussion at the same moment. They meet again in each other’s confused minds. In the process of trying to piece together fragments of self, their memories draw them back to 1997 – the year their friendship was shattered by a place in which it is impossible for even a child to feel at ease.
