Synopsis
Two Nova Scotian teenagers struggle to reconcile their broken relationship and grapple with their impending futures as adults. A contemporary response to Salt Water Moon, this play takes a simple yet raw look at first love and unabashedly explores their relationship, asking what it means to be a "mature young adult" in our age of over-saturation and antiquated ideas of gender and sexuality.
