Girls and Boys
Methuen Drama (Verlag)
978-1-350-20069-2 (ISBN)
An unexpected meeting at an airport leads to an intense, passionate, head-over-heels relationship. Before long they begin to settle down, buy a house, juggle careers, have kids – theirs is an ordinary family.
But then their world starts to unravel and things take a disturbing turn.
A tragic, violent look at parenthood and trauma, Denis Kelly's stirring monologue play premiered at The Royal Court Theatre in 2018 starring Carey Mulligan.
Published for the first time in Methuen Drama's Modern Classics series, this edition features a new introduction by David Pattie.
