Description
Yen by Anna Ruth Jordan explores the complexities of childhood and adolescence. Two young girls, Hench and Bobbie, navigate their lives at home with limited adult supervision, leading to unexpected consequences. Their mother's infrequent visits often bring empty promises, while an unexpected arrival sets off a chain of events that forces them to confront the harsh realities of growing up. This powerful play, which won the 2013 Bruntwood Prize for Playwriting, offers a poignant portrayal of youth and its struggles. First performed at the Royal Exchange Theatre in Manchester before transferring to the Royal Court Theatre in London, Yen was published alongside the Royal Court production in January 2016.
