"Would you rather meet a man or a bird at a bus stop?"A girl is alone at night. But not for long.Funny, feral and full of girlhood fury.It asks what we inherit, what we survive, and why the same stories keep happening again and again.In the wake of the Epstein files, and the current issue of femicide in the North of Ireland, Growing Pains bears the fruit of an outrageously hilarious political drama.An unflinching new play about 2010s girlhood, cringe-worthy quests for love, and the cyclical curse of womanhood. Growing Pains celebrates the chaos and contradictions of growing up: wanting to go ice-skating with your parents, but also wanting to get drunk and fingered in some random field.In association with:Supported by:
