‘A blinding, sucker-punch of a play – honest, hilarious, heartfelt.‘ Phoebe Waller-Bridge
Three friends grow up under an ancient tree. They’re filthy, brutal and full of hope. By turns hysterical and poignant, Playfight is a ‘stunningly accomplished’ (★★★★★ Observer) and searing probe of their inner lives as they hunt for love. Proper, ugly love. As their roots sink deeper, the branches stretch higher… so they decide to climb.
An Edinburgh Festival smash hit, Playfight is a ‘marvellous jewel of a play’ (★★★★★ Times) that shines a vivid light on adolescent desire in a landscape of rising sexual violence.
