"Respect women, respect girls. Respect yourselves. Remember you are everyone who's gone before you and you are nobody that has ever been, so make it count, make it special, make a difference, make people listen, love the women who have loved you and watch us make the world move to a better place"
For Layla, every day is a battleground
The pay gap
The thigh gap
Over-sexed pop
Photoshopped selfies
They're all just part of the world she lives in
But that world is about to change.
With drama, comedy, poetry and music as her weapons, Layla breaks out of her bedroom and confronts the realities, difficulties and absurdities of teenage life today
The voices of a thousand teens are brought to life in Layla
And their ambitions, concerns, role-models and regrets are woven together in this hard-hitting, yet hopeful, story
Ideal for students and young performers 15+
