Sweet Seventeen

AHEAD of the Queensland premiere of Maleny Player’s SEVENTEEN, pictured is Rainee Skinner and school chums (left) in all their 17-year-old Nambour State College heartbreaking mid-70s glory. Rainee (right) absolutely “is” Sue, the character she portrays in Matthew Whittet’s production. That smile and blue eyes are the same - no wonder the boys in the play are smitten. School has finished for a group of 17 year olds who meet at night in a playground to party and plan their futures. Bittersweet, outrageous and compelling, SEVENTEEN has a strong language warning and is rated 16+. March 30-April 2. Tickets from $25. www.trybooking.com/events/ landing/1007954
