About

It's 2010. Think pink iPods, Lady Gaga's meat dress, a catastrophic general election - and a protest Summer hopes will change the world.

Summer has just turned 18. She's lucky enough to have the rest of her life to look forward to. She dreams of being a photographer but it's hard to dream about the future when the world around you is on fire. What is there to look forward to exactly? Slimy men in blue ties are squeezing the country dry with austerity, deepening inequality for people everywhere. And they're coming for her education next. She's not going to have it.

The solution? Change the world. Duh. By going to a protest against increasing student fees, obviously.

Armed with a brand new camera, her oldest friend, and her favourite Maya Angelou quote, Summer throws herself into her first ever protest, and has the best day of her life, literally. She knows this one will go down in history. Everything changes, Just not in the way she expects.

A debut play by Demi Wilson-Smith
