Everyone’s carrying something.
The pressure to fit in. To stand out. To keep up.

In a world where every choice feels like it matters, a group of young people navigate the expectations placed on them by friends, family, social media and society itself. As secrets surface, loyalties are tested and pressure builds, who will be there to pick up the pieces?

Set to a pulsing Hip-Hop, Grime & R&B soundtrack. PRESSURE is a powerful new youth theatre production exploring the realities young people face today, and the resilience that helps them rise above.

Presented as part of 20 Stories High’s 20th birthday celebrations, this special anniversary production celebrates two decades of amplifying young voices, telling urgent stories and creating unforgettable theatre.

In association with Unity Theatre.

This project is supported by Arts Council England, Paul Hamlyn Foundation, John Ellerman Foundation, The Coutts Foundation and Liverpool City Council.
