‘Everyone knows that friendships made in bathrooms are ones that last for life.’
Cactus is a brutally funny, heartbreakingly honest new play for anyone who is or ever has been a teenager.
This timely play by Madelaine Nunn follows Abbie and her best friend PB as they navigate their last year of high school. It’s going well. I mean, they’re still virgins, but it’s going well. Milestones are being met. Exams are drawing near. Freedom is on the horizon. Then Abbie gets some news that suddenly and unceremoniously plunges her into a world she wasn’t ready for.
