Anya Reiss was just 17-years-old, when she wrote this family drama, which had such a strong impact on the artistic direction at the Royal Court Theatre that the play was accepted to premiere in 2010. Reiss is the youngest playwright, who has ever had a play staged professionally in London. The play follows the 12-year-old Delilah, her fighting parents Nick and Vicky, her friends and her crush on the 21-year-old loafing Daniel, to whom the family have rented out a room due to financial problems.
