Upon the stormy, rain soaked seafront of Brighton and Hove a body is discovered below the towering cliffs towards the edge of town. The news of this unexpected death quickly resonates throughout the city. Dan, a young single man, is enjoying a lifestyle of football, sex, late nights and constant socialising with his close group of friends. Learning that the body found was that of someone close to him turns his life upside down. Poor decisions, driven by depression and anxiety that the loss has triggered, results in dysfunctional relationships, treachery, violent altercations, time spent in prison and a close network of friends being shattered. Will Dan ever be able to recover? Told with humour, passion and written in an emotionally powerful way, On The Edge vividly depicts how difficult it is for a young male to seek help and speak openly about mental illness whilst attempting to fit in with those around him.
