Summary - Virgins

(Samuel )
The story is about a modern, dysfunctional family, which consists of 4 members. Suzy, who is the head of the family, is very busy doing work during the weeks and cold at weekends. Nick is a househusband, who keeps the house on his own. Jack and Zoe are the two children of Suzy and Nick. Jack appears to be full of life and spontaneous while Zoe is more calm and thoughtful. The closer the story is to its peak the more conflicts are noticeable. For example there’s one caused by Zoe. She tells Jack’s secret to Nick, although she had promised not to tell anyone. The arguing of Jack and Nick is inescapable and at its end Jack runs off. In the end of the story, however, everything is fine again.

In this play you see a huge black curtain in the background, which is used as hiding place for clothes, items like cell phones etc. and the characters if they are not mentioned in the scene. There are also some walls right in front of the curtain so the characters can hide behind the curtain without taking the attention of the main characters. In the middle of the stage is a dollhouse, which is used for sitting by Jack and for window cleaning by Nick. The last things I remember are some boxes. These boxes have multiple uses such as seats or the characters stand on them so the audience can see them better.

This play conveys various messages, such as not to do drugs, because you might lose control of yourself. In addition it’s not too smart to have sex without using a condom. Furthermore the handling of sexual diseases is an important topic too. All of these aspects make the play a good one, which we can recommend you without having a bad conscience.
