Making out, fighting, laughing, dancing and confessing…drawn from over 500 starkly honest and highly confidential interviews with Western Australian teens, this high energy, revealing and confronting play draws back the curtain on what it means to be young in our modern, media-driven society.
Five teenagers walk an emotional tightrope of online and offline relationships, colliding with one another and driving into the walls built around them.
The hit of the Perth International Arts Festival and nominated for a 2012 Helpmann Award, this daring, immersive production gives a raw and voyeuristic view of the deepest secrets, rages, anxieties and hopes of the next generation. With rock concert sound and lighting and multi-media imagery, this show combines fast paced choreography with in your face attitude in a theatrical experience that connects viscerally with youth.
