17.
17 is a look at what it's like being a teenager now: trying things, learning stuff, failing, succeeding, heartbreak, expectations and shame. At 17 your world isn't just at home, at school and maybe at further maths club, with the internet watching and recording and repeating your actions, your choices are there for everyone to see and for everyone to have an opinion on. This lyrical play will throw you back into those unsteady days of 17.
Where's it been?
In 2019 17 was staged at the VAULT Festival (Cavern).
