Description
Four young men face the challenges of transitioning to adulthood in this energetic and thought-provoking play. As they prepare to leave their flat, they must navigate a world that doesn't always want to accept them. The Class of 2011 is on the cusp of a new chapter, but first, they're going to throw one final party. With girls, music, and a sense of freedom, their last night together promises to be unforgettable. As the night wears on, the boys' futures begin to take shape. But will they find the strength to make a go of it as adults? Ella Hickson's play Boys is a raw and unflinching portrayal of youth, identity, and the search for belonging. First performed at the HighTide Festival in 2012, Boys has since been performed at the Nuffield Theatre and Soho Theatre, London. This powerful and provocative play is a must-see for anyone interested in the complexities of young adulthood.
