How do we really prepare to be an adult? There are certain things that you just don’t learn about – being orphaned at 18 is one of them. The Ballad of Adulthood follows two teens and their survival into adulthood. Through grief, friendship, love, loss, thrush, and everything in between, we are all taken back on the journey of what it means to be young. Now I am older I am less sure, more sure, or too sure. Friendships, dreams, music, grief, and the reality of growing up.
"Our children live in the most deprived ward in London and their parents cannot afford to pay for the classes and activities many more privileged children enjoy after school and at the weekends. A free-to-access youth group run by a local theatre in a professional setting is an incredible opportunity."
