"So what are you going to miss the most?"
"The library, free periods on Wednesday afternoons, interschool debating tournaments and Mrs Frankenbaum."
"Frankenbaum? Who smells like something crept up her frankenbaum and died years ago?"
It’s the night of the last day of school. And it’s over. Finally over!
"Seventeen" is a unique coming-of-age story in which older actors, who have long passed the season of youth, portray a group of 17-year-olds on the brink of adulthood. Set in a playground on the last night of high school, the vulnerability, uncertainty and exhilaration of youth are captured as six friends navigate the bittersweet transition from adolescence to the unknown world of adulthood.
The play explores themes of friendship, love, identity and the inevitable passage of time, offering a moving and honest reflection on growing up and letting go. The finely tuned writing delivers both humour and tenderness, making this a heartfelt portrayal of the essence of life.
