I was fortunate enough to be able to see this amazing peice of theatre. Well done to all involved!! It was being performed for High School students and public in the Rockingham area and after seeing it I think it should tour every High school. Not only do you see a first rate cast that I would be hard pressed to fault, but also a very cleaver script. Together they take you into the lives of 6 unmarried girls who are pregnant and must face family, friends and "society". The actors play multipul roles switching throughout the play as we see snapshots of the 6 pregnant girls and the choices they have to make. There were some funny moments, the old ladies of our community were my favourite, and some touching moments as well. The audience, 80% teenage girls, held its collective breath as 2 of the actors slowly recounted the day they "Terminated" their problem.
The play does not preach right or wrong, it simply asks you to journey a short while with 6 ordinary girls, but it does make you think and you will find your emotions stirred.
In short I found it to be an unexpected gem and once again thanks to all involved.

Thankyou David for that wonderful review im so glad you enjoyed so much. I play Simone the youngest female dealing with a termination.
It is wonderful to hear differnet peoples perspectives on the play, i always wondered how males would perseive it, thankyou once again for watching our performance of something so real in todays society and for your fantastic feed back.
