Directions

What to expect

Lou and Tosh are joined at the hip, but their philosophies could not be further apart: Lou sleeps with anyone who asks nicely, while Tosh has declared herself radically celibate. Then Fran arrives, engaged and insufferable. Miriam Battye’s play is about the fierce nature of female friendship and the parts of your twenties nobody prepared you for.

Worth knowing

Running time 90 minutes. Over 18s only.
