The play itself

The play was made for the National theatres connections

Each year it offers a unique opportunity for youth theatres and school theatre groups to stage new plays written for young people by some of theatre’s most exciting playwrights, and to perform in leading theatres across the UK.
This is why is is aimed at young people and has jokes that younger people will understand. This play specifically was written by Anthony Horowitz who has very clevely created a play which has dark matters and put a twist on it in order to make it funny.
