The performance is inspired by real life events in 2008, where 18 underage girls in an American high school all became pregnant at the same time, with the intention of bringing them up in a sort of female commune.
Sorry, boys tries to focus on the questions facing men: How are today’s young men? What adults are they preparing to become? Who are the young fathers and why aren’t they considered suitable to take part in the pact? And while the girls unite and project a new community, where are the boys, what are they doing, what are they thinking?
