Ella Hickson, Plays: One

By Ella Hickson

Eight (Edinburgh Fringe, 2008), that astonishing first success, is included here: a state-of-the-nation group portrait in monologues, "an interactive Talking Heads for 21st-century teens and twentysomethings" ( Independent ). Also included is Hot Mess (Edinburgh Fringe, 2010), a dark and lyrical tale about twins born with just a single heart between them, and Precious Little Talent (Edinburgh Fringe, 2009; West End, 2011), about two young adults graduating into a world that's sold them down the river. In Boys (HighTide Festival, Nuffield Theatre Southampton and Soho Theatre, 2012), the Class of 2011 faces a tricky transition to adulthood in a play that "powerfully captures the mood of a generation" ( Independent ). The volume also contains an introduction by the author and two short plays: the previously unpublished PMQ , part of the Coalition season at Theatre503, London, in 2010; and Gift , first seen as part of Headlong's immersive theatre production Decade in 2011.
