“I used to be seventeen.” Lucy, Cara and Faye, three freshly graduated university students are getting ready for their final night out together before they all go their separate ways into the adult world. A night like any other, that will leave the girls changed for good. A story about growing up, the power of choices, and the fact that nothing ever stays the same. A brand new Irish play which speaks to the challenges that come with the bridge to adulthood. ‘Getting Ready’ shines a light on the culture of female friendships, the question of permanence of youth vs the impending nostalgia that comes with getting older. While being told through a modern lens, this story still manages to resonate with all those who have crossed this space before, resulting in a universal story for all ages to enjoy. A play full of humour and heart, ‘Getting Ready’ is bound to leave audiences reminiscence of a time that once was, and hopeful for a time yet to come.
