Playfight by Julia Grogan
Under their tree, three fifteen year-old girls, Keira, Zainab, and Lucy, wrestle with sex, shame, and growing up at different paces. It starts with a game and a dead possum. It ends with someone getting hurt.
Fast, funny, and unfiltered, Playfight hurls us into a world where boundaries blur and expectations collide. A viral video, awkward first times, and friendship stretched to breaking — these are the milestones of a coming-of-age that’s as raw as it is dangerous.
Written in the aftermath of the “rough sex” defence, Julia Grogan’s award-winning debut isn’t here to judge or offer easy answers. Instead, Playfight asks what happens when no one teaches you how to look after yourself — and you have to figure it out with just your mates, your instincts, and the internet.
An Edinburgh Festival smash hit, Playfight shines a vivid light on adolescent desire in a landscape of rising sexual violence.
Presented by Silo Theatre.
