About this show

An original play commissioned by Hungry Wolf Visionary Youth Theatre Company and written by Naomi Denny in collaboration with the young company. As nine young people approach the end of their GCSEs, a celebratory gathering on the beach takes a devastating turn. A singular, defining event inexplicably binds the group, forcing them to grapple questions of collective responsibility and individual guilt. Hungry Wolf VYT represents a new generation of youth theatre. With work both thought provoking and relevant, Hungry Wolf has established a reputation for hard-hitting, truthful and uncompromising material.
