Chatroom / Citizenship (double bill)
Cottesloe, National Theatre, London from 1st to 19th September 2007
Two short, sharp and provocative plays where the drama of teenagers' lives
takes centre stage. Direct and honest, they are intensely alive to the possibilities
and pressures we face on the verge of adulthood.
Chatroom a new play by Enda Walsh
In cyberspace six 15-year-olds type and chat. A chilling and powerful tale
of manipulation and the ultimate act of teenage rebellion.
Citizenship a new play by Mark Ravenhill
A bittersweet comedy about growing up, following a boy's frank and messy
search to discover his sexual identity.
"One of the most thrillingly enjoyable evenings I've
had in the theatre" Sunday Times
"Anna Mackmin's splendidly peppy production… A
triumph" Evening Standard
"These are the best new plays currently to be seen
in London. They
give us keenly believable views of British teenagers today and offer revealing
sociology and vivid entertainment" Financial Times
