Growing Pains bears the fruit of an outrageously hilarious political drama.
An unflinching new play about 2010s girlhood, cringe-worthy quests for love, and the cyclical curse of womanhood. Growing Pains celebrates the chaos and contradictions of growing up. The show asks us what we inherit, what we survive, and why the same stories keep happening again and again.
Join us at The Playhouse for this funny, feral exploration of girlhood fury.
