About
So there’s this group of teenagers, and they’ve done something bad... really bad, and now they’re panicking and desperately trying to cover it up, but when they find that the cover-up is actually bringing them together in their need to be a part of something more, maybe it isn’t all so bad after all?

“Dennis Kelly's short, sharp shocker of a play cleverly piles on the twists, [his] sharp, reflective writing gets inside the characters' heads” The Guardian
“A taut compelling thriller and a modern-day spin on Lord of the Flies, exploring group behaviour and moral equivocation” Financial Times
