Year 13. The school year that entire futures depend upon.

In the old library of a private grammar school, a group of pupils feel the pressure of their looming mock exams. As the tests creep disconcertingly near, the teenagers must balance the viciousness of adolescence against society’s expectations of adulthood.

Under a veneer of prosperity, these intelligent, engaged and well-educated young people are beginning to crack. Inevitably, something has to give.

Simon Stephens’ biting political play is directed by Lisa Gregan (Under A Cardboard Sea) and presented by Bristol Old Vic Young Company in their signature ensemble style.
