Description
Three misfit teenagers are brought together by a sex scandal in their school, sparking a chain reaction of hilarious and unexpected events. As they navigate the complexities of social media, peer pressure, and adult expectations, Howie, Solomon, and Diwata must confront their own identities and find their voice. In this witty and thought-provoking play, Stephen Karam explores the challenges of growing up in a world where conformity is often prized over individuality. With its sharp dialogue and relatable characters, Speech & Debate is a compelling exploration of what it means to be true to oneself. First performed Off-Broadway in 2007, Speech & Debate has since been produced in various venues around the world, including its European premiere at Trafalgar Studios, London, in 2017.
