'Marvellous... a play that both powerfully captures the mood of a generation and addresses permanent truths with exhilarating flair' Independent; 'Will leave you with laughter lines' Time Out; 'Ella Hickson is one of the hottest young writers around and in Boys shows flashes of brilliance' British Theatre Guide; 'Heartfelt directness of writing that taps into a generation torn between action and inertia' Guardian

It's finals day for the Class of 2011. Benny, Mack, Timp and Cam are due out of their five bedroom flat tomorrow morning; five bedrooms, five chairs, four boys - and one hell of a party. Stepping into a world that doesn't want them, these boys start to wonder whether there's any point in getting any older. How will they find the fight to make it as adults? Tonight marks the end of an era. It's hot. And there'll be girls. Predict a riot. This is a world premiere presented by Headlong theatre company - touring the UK 2012. From award-winning playwright Ella Hickson, whose debut "Eight" won an Edinburgh Fringe First Award and the Carol Tambor 'Best of Edinburgh' Award in 2008.
