Inspired by real events and played against a euphoric techno soundscape, Youth in Flames brings the raw intensity of the Hong Kong riots dramatically to life.
Direct from its sell-out run at the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe, Mimi Martin’s urgent and compelling Scotsman Fringe First multi-Award-winning play directed by Jessica Whiley focuses on the 2019 Hong Kong protests as a girl searches for her sense of home whilst the city fights for its survival.
Following their previous international stage successes with Shellshocked and Jesus, Jane, Mother and Me, Olivier, TONY, and EMMY award-winning producer Richard Jordan and Lawrence Batley Theatre reunite, with Dare Theatre, to present Youth in Flames for an exclusive engagement ahead of transferring the production to New York in June 2026.
