About Girls
"They leave a trail of fire and flesh. If they followed it – if somebody followed the stench – they would find us"
Nigeria, 2014. Teenagers Tisana, Haleema, and Ruha are best friends, busy swapping notes on celebrities, sex positions, and dodging carbs.
But when they’re kidnapped by militant insurgents and forced towards an uncertain future, they have only each other to turn to. As fear and religious differences begin to fracture their bond, how far can their friendship be tested before it breaks?
Ewa Dina, winner of the 2026 JMK Award, makes her Young Vic debut directing Theresa Ikoko’s powerful story of friendship under fire - winner of the Alfred Fagon Award (2015), the George Devine Award (2016), and a finalist for the Verity Bargate Award.
