DIRECTOR’S NOTE We are thrilled, at last, to present this new-writing performance project, exploring issues around young people’s mental health. Members of the Young Co. had recognised this as a priority before the pandemic hit - little did we know where we were heading and how this issue would be even more important some two years later. We hope that you are thoroughly entertained by the new pieces we have created in collaboration with our brilliant writing mentors, and also find some new understanding and perspectives that we think will resonate with all ages. Neil Packham, Young Co. Director
