The Secret Lives of Sixteen-Year-Old Girls

RETURNING to BATS AFTER A SELL OUT SEASON - 5 nights only.

The Secret Lives of Sixteen-Year-Old Girls is a contemporary coming-of-age tale across generations. Sharp, awkward and funny with a gut-punch; honest experience and cutting realities form this powerful new play about our digital age. When almost anything is available from your smartphone, where – if anywhere – is truly safe? And what does that mean for parenting? An inter-generational cast and crew delve into the secrets, sex and Snapchat accounts of being sixteen. A show that swings artfully between the comedy of being a cool parent and the heart-dropping consequences of social expectations and normalised violence on our young people.

CONTENT WARNING: The Secret Lives of Sixteen-Year-Old Girls contains sexual assault, violence, and reference to self harm. The play deals with mental health, drug use, sexual violence toward a teenager, and an experience of the criminal justice system.
