Girls Like That
by Evan Placey
Stage2’s Girls Like That is a sensational staging of a brilliant play: in fact, it’s one of the cleverest youth productions I have seen in years.
Why? Liz Light’s young cast have talent coming out of their ears. Their speaking is superb: full of guts and panache, and real dramatic flair. Often they form a kind of Greek chorus, one voice taking over from another with perfect timing, linked to what precedes by a kind of artful enjambment. And their choric speaking, all delivering at once, lands a terrific punch. Enunciation, projection are almost professional. This would be a great show even if we only heard them.
