A huge hit at the Traverse Festival 2024, So Young is a multi-award winning comedy that is at once both hilarious and deeply moving.

When recently bereaved forty-something Milo invites his two oldest friends Davie and Liane over to drink wine, listen to records and reminisce about the olden days, it promises to be a great night reconnecting. There’s nothing better than catching up with pals. But there’s something else. He wants them to meet the new love of his life. Her name is Greta. And she’s twenty years old.

From Douglas Maxwell, the celebrated writer of Decky Does a Bronco and I Can Go Anywhere, So Young sees an innocuous evening slide into ruin as old friends face the challenges of middle age, growing apart and losing those close to them.
