Director Kate Champion on Girls & Boys

Watch Kate Champion discuss the extraordinary one-woman show Girls & Boys and why it's important to her that this story was written by a man.

Kate Champion directs Nikki Shiels in the extraordinary one-woman show Girls & Boys by Tony Award-winning British playwright Dennis Kelly – an undeniable tour de force that will stay with you long after the curtains close. This is theatre at its most raw, and most affecting.

Girls & Boys is on stage until 26 November at Arts Centre Melbourne.

This production contains frequent coarse language, mature themes and descriptions of graphic violence and suicide. For detailed information about the production’s content click here.
