3 Couples, 2 Breakups, 1 Barbie and The Berlin Wall

Square Pegs – Macready Theatre Young Actors’ Company

Seven teenagers (and a Barbie doll) invite you to a joyfully absurd play about love – in all its weird and wonderful forms. Square Pegs ask lots of questions about what it means to be human in their life-imitating-art play about growing up and in its own inimitable, absurdist fashion, offer absolutely no answers whatsoever! Offie-nominated Macready Theatre Young Actors share tales of breakups, heartache and what it’s like to fall in love with the Berlin Wall with fast-paced, fun-filled story-telling.
