Certain is a Story…
You love your mum. Of course you do. But what happens when she accidentally gate crashes your life? For 19 year old Alex this is his toe curling new reality, as chance events propel his weary mum right into his space.
It’s causing shockwaves in Alex’s band too; a tight knit group of friends who’ve grown up together in Wolverhampton. Mind you, whilst Alex is heroically trying to cling to his dreams of stardom and adoration (not necessarily in that order), there are bigger problems afoot. Around him, piece by piece, things are beginning to quietly unravel……
A 2023 ‘Commitments’ style tale, with unforgettable original songs to melt the hardest heart.
Set to make you laugh and cry, the Certain story was penned by Algar/Nicholas, performed by members of the Certain Collective, animated by the awesome Dan Crew and coming soon!.
