“There’s a boy in my living room. I’m not prepared for this.”
Friday night. Four girls. Two boys. Alone in a house. Some of them are in love. Most of them are virgins. Everyone’s pretending they know what they’re doing.
Tonight’s the night they stop pretending.
The Virgins is described as a funny and devastating fever dream of desire and teenagerhood. It forms part of Soho Theatre’s season of in-house new writing, which includes Little Brother, Most Favoured, Welcome to Pemfort, and Tender.
