Girls Like That (NHB Modern Plays) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

An urgent and explosive new play that explores of the pressures on young people today in the wake of advancing technology.

When a naked photograph of Scarlett goes viral, she becomes the centre of attention for all the wrong reasons. But while rumours run wild and everyone forms an opinion, Scarlett just stays silent...

With roles for up to twenty-four young female actors (though it can also be performed by a smaller cast), the play is perfect for any schools, youth theatres or drama groups looking to tackle a contemporary subject in a theatrically exciting way.

Specially commissioned by Birmingham Repertory Theatre, Theatre Royal Plymouth and West Yorkshire Playhouse, Girls Like That was developed through work with young people from the three theatres and first performed by their youth theatre companies in 2013.

'dazzling... an immaculately crafted and brave piece of energetic theatre that plays host to powerful issues and themes' A Younger Theatre
