About
Before they became your nanas, mothers, aunties, friends and lovers, who were they?
A diverse, inter-generational ensemble of women unearth the girls they were and shine a light on the women they have become.
Spanning decades of lived experience, GIRLS is a whole-hearted dance of what it felt like to be a girl and a reclamation of all things loved, lost, desired and fought for.
Raucous, tender and unapologetic. Someone else can tidy up.
Created by NDT Associate Ensemble The PappyShow, makers of sell-out hit BOYS, GIRLS comes to NDT following sell-out shows at Incoming Festival and winning the VAULT Festival Show of the Week Award 2019.
Age recommendation: 12+ with parental guidance.
