Discussion after the performance

Two seemingly different worlds, two teams: two generations. On the dodgeball court, they clash with the authorities of their past and present. They learn to confront them and find their own voice, independent of those who shaped it. They discover that their stories are similar in many ways and that some demons have been around for many years and many generations. Do you know how today’s teenagers grow up, what they experience and what they feel? How are their ideas reflected in the generation of thirty-somethings? What fears do these two groups share? When will someone’s voice begin to be heard?
