I am a teacher and my initial plan was to do some of this this with my students (all around 17 years old) but none of them knew what a chat room was. I think some of the characters are a little too 1D and appear as devices for the story's advancement, however 1D characters aren't uncommon on the internet so I can let it slide. I've been wanting to read this for such a long time, well since I saw the movie and it finally came in the library today.From this chilling premise is forged a funny, compelling and uplifting play that tackles the issues of teenage life head-on and with great understanding. But when a new member, Jim, joins to share his depression and thoughts of suicide, the conversation takes a dark turn. Principal photography took place in early 2010 at Shepperton Studios in Shepperton, Surrey, [5] with some outdoor scenes shot in Camden and Primrose Hill. When William gets it and comes back, Eva punches him and the rest of the crew comes, followed by the police. From purely reading it, the ending felt a little flat but I can imagine it being a much more powerful thing to witness than to read.

A great play nonetheless which is difficult to actually enjoy because of the nature of it, but Enda highlights the dangers of conformity and what can happen if a joke is taken too far.Mo believes himself to be a pedophile because he is attracted to his friend Si's prepubescent sister, Keisha. A very thought provoking play, although I think I am going to have to either read the ending again or watch a staged version of it to fully understand. Whether that's putting new work on stages across the world or supporting our outreach and learning programmes, every purchase you make really does make a difference. His plans are halted though when his computer and phone are taken away from him by his father, who when looking through William's computer, finds one of the suicide videos. It received its first professional production in the Cottesloe auditorium of the National Theatre, London, in March 2006.
