Counterattack : Youth

14 - 15 Oct 2026

Counterattack : Youth

Four high school friends reunite over drinks. What begins as light conversation soon turns to love, marriage, work, and the unspoken pressure of where they feel they should be in life. 

Counterattack: Youth is a one-hour pub drama set entirely in a real pub, with the audience seated as fellow patrons at the next table. No stage. No distance. Just four women in their late twenties, a round of drinks, and every conversation they've been putting off.

It is a little bit of everything: a celebration, an argument, a prank, a toast, and even a reminiscence about school days. But most importantly, it is one very honest conversation about what it actually means to be young right now.
