Description The house in Features of Blown Youth creates a fragile hermetic microcosm where we watch the desperate attempts of the characters to connect and the ways they kill time. It is also a doll's house where different lives are stacked on top of each other in boxes in delicate displays of personal identity. When the new owner arrives and proceed to make renovations to the house, the play begins to warp into a disturbing nightmare.
Benedict Andrews, Director's note, Programme.
