Books for Your Head Publishing
A unique new play about the power of youth and the howl for beginning.
"Simon Jaggers is a visionary from England''s wastelands. Gun to your Head is a celebration of a play. Like a Disco Pigs for England''s ghost hours. It''s so beautiful it''s actually ludicrous." -- Simon Stephens, playwright
Buried deep in the belly of England.
You probably haven''t heard of teenage runaways Dakota and Bede yet. But you will. They''ll be all over the radio and splashed across newspapers - bigger than Thelma and Louise. That''s the plan anyway. Gun to your head: what could possibly go wrong?
Simon Jaggers debut play GUN TO YOUR HEAD is a deep dive into the power of youth and a howl for belonging. It was a sell-out hit at VAULT Festival and toured across East Anglia in May 2025 with Dakota Collective in association with HighTide, a writer-centred theatre company, celebrating the joy and power of new plays.
