This Changes Everything (NHB Modern Plays)

A group of disillusioned young women have disappeared. On a platform out at sea, they have formed The Community – a new type of society and a better way of living. But how can you change the world if you've taken yourself out of it?
This Changes Everything by Joel Horwood is part of Platform, a new initiative from Tonic Theatre in partnership with Nick Hern Books.
Aimed at addressing gender imbalance and inequality in theatre, Platform comprises big-cast plays with predominantly or all-female casts, written specifically for performance by school, college and youth-theatre groups.
'Drama is an important tool for building confidence and empowering young people. Platform will give girls opportunity to access these benefits as much as their male counterparts.' – Moira Buffini

    We should stay because… We know why you came here. Everything back home is wrong. A few rich white men making decisions for loads of people who are not rich and white and men and those decisions are always about money while stuff’s running out, people are fighting over oil, water, food – Wars are coming, riots, police violence, it’s all coming unless we change how we all live, not just in little token ways but completely. We have to come up with entirely different ways of living here and what you were talking about in the conversations we decoded, fairness, equality, it all makes sense. And now we’ve read those, now we know all that, we don’t belong back there. We can’t fit in, we belong here, away from exam results, timetables, choosing what job we should do, trying to fit in to a broken system. We should stay because we can help, because we want to, because we’re not just little girls, we’re people and we want to change everything. With you. That’s why we should stay.
