Young and Hungry is one of my favourite festivals in the theatrical calendar year as I relish the opportunity to witness the upcoming talent of the performers and designers. It’s a chance for the playwrights and directors to showcase their exceptionally hard work, and it’s a chance for emerging artists to create, present, and learn. This year, we’re treated to One Night Only written by Finnius Teppett and directed by Stella Reid, Fallen Angels written by Emily Duncan and directed by Rose Kirkup, and Attila the Hun written by Abby Howells and directed by Patrick Davies. While at first the plays don’t seem to share a theme like they have in other years, as I watch them, loss and discovery erupt as primary subjects.
