Seventeen
by Matthew Whittet

Jess is Mike's girlfriend.

Tom is Mike's best friend, but he's secretly in love with Jess.

Emilia is Jess's goody-two-shoes best friend and she's about to get drunk for the first time.

Lizzy is Mike's annoying younger sister.

And Ronny, well no-one invited Ronny and no one's quite sure why he's there.

As dawn approaches, through a fog of cheap beer, dreams are shared, insecurities aired and secrets spilled.

Funny, immature, wise and a little bit sad, Seventeen performed by a cast of septuagenarians, will turn our notions of adulthood and adolescence on their head.

A Lyric Hammersmith production in association with Belvoir, Sydney.
