Have you ever thought about what it would be like to stay a child forever? Or were you, are you, desperate for adulthood?
What would it feel like to have a choice?
The night before her 14th birthday Mojisola receives a letter inviting her to investigate this choice. Join her as she goes on a journey to navigate whether to grow up or stay young.
Beyond Face were invited by Company Three to join them, Mortal Fools and Prime Theatre for a project titled 'Grow Up Exchange'. Here they created four new full-length plays from the same starting point - the words 'Grow Up'. Teenagers are told to do this all the time, but are rarely given any space to do so – what do they think of this and how do they feel about growing up in the world? The four groups of young people, from Northumberland, Swindon, Plymouth and London worked together and met over the course of 3 days for a residential to share practice, knowledge and material. Now they have created and will perform in their own productions in 2024.
