About the Show

A raw and darkly funny look at teenage desire, confusion, and first times.

On a Friday night, four girls and two boys gather alone in a house. Some are in love, most are virgins, and all are pretending to understand what comes next. When the night unfolds, the pretending stops. Written by Miriam Battye (Strategic Love Play, Succession) and directed by Olivier nominee Jaz Woodcock-Stewart (Paradise Now!, The Glass Menagerie), The Virgins is a sharp and unsettling exploration of adolescence, longing, and the awkward performance of growing up.

“The Virgins is a witty, thought-provoking and knotty production that takes an unflinching view of modern teenagers.”
