Play Synopsis
"We're kids, and kids can be cruel. We're all competing so much we forget how much harm we do to each other; there's all these rules about who you can be friends with and who's cool and who isn't and how you dress and what music you like and if you're good at sports, and a million other things... It's tough being a kid, but one day we'll wake up and we'll be older and maybe then we can start getting on with our lives... I hope so anyway, because I've pretty much given up trying to fit in - it's fucking exhausting." Tackling weighty issues, including homophobia in schools, risky sexual relationships and bullying, Kidz takes an honest look at the exhausting rituals of growing up: Painful, poignant, funny and sometimes tragic; a community of young people discover truths about each other that will change their lives forever.A play for young people to perform. - Commission for Stagecraft Youth Theatre (Irelands best youth theatre), Tipperary, Ireland and directed by Shane Dempsey, January 2013.
