Try a Little Tenderness[edit]

I'm trying to find the name of a play with the song Try a Little Tenderness included part way through.

I recall the setting is a housing estate. The main characters young - maybe early twenties. Two young men and two young women find themselves in a derelict building. Very despondent. They are standing around something. I think one or both lads sing the lyrics. Very moving. Especially as the girls have little in their lives.

Any idea of the name of the drama? Must be at least 15-20 years ago. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mel65000 (talkcontribs) 13:33, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
