Dumping at The Cockpit, London. A Young(ish) Perspective review.

The only gut-wrenching, snot-inducing breakups we hear about are the romantic ones. But not tonight. Over one karaoke-fuelled evening at their local, Alana and Bea reckon with the ultimate heartbreak – the platonic divorce. A play about navigating the changes between girlhood and womanhood. About needing people. About facing ourselves. It asks, what are friends for?

Dumping previewed at The Cockpit as a ‘Theatre Maker’ production. It is currently undergoing further development before returning to London.
