About the Play:

93.2 FM is a full-length comedy by Levi David Addai. When the founder and chief DJ of a south London community radio station gets the opportunity to move up to a major station, his partner accuses him of disloyally turning his back on his community and friends. There's a storm brewing and the live phone-ins might not be able to provide all the answers. 93.2 FM about achieving your goals and what may, or may not be compromised along the way.

93.2 FM is set in the on-air studio of a small South London local community radio station, Borough FM. The co-owners are a couple of hip 25-year-old black disc jockeys, Malachi Walker, who broadcasts under the name of Coach, and Jerome Bartley, known to his listeners as Bossman. The two DJs and have built up a loyal following with their live phone-ins. But then Coach wins a talent contest that lands him a possible job with the big-shot City FM. If he takes it, will he be an inspiring symbol of progress for the community or will he be betraying his roots? With additional problems posed by a slacker brother, a demanding girlfriend and the true paternity of the child she's expecting, 93.2FM is a sharp comedy about friendship, dreams and the conflict awakened by ambition. It's a sharp look at contemporary music culture.

93.2 FM premiered in 2006 at the Royal Court Theatre in London as part of Critical Mass, a playwriting initiative aimed at encouraging young black and ethnic minority writers. It was revived at Royal Court Theatre in 2008 before touring to Cardiff, Birmingham, Liverpool, and Brighton.
