Our senior youth theatre had their first readthrough of their upcoming National Theatre Connections Festival play, The Peridocials by Siân Owen.

‘Set in the near future - a group of young people live as a feral group of techno-savvy fugitives, living off the land which is a rubbish dump. They stay out of sight of the authorities - particularly the education authorities who are desperate to get them back into school because the optics are not good. However school has lost its allure. When the young people are in school they are overlooked and underestimated - seen as being more trouble than they are worth. So now, for the group, school’s out forever.’

We really can’t wait to get started on this one!
