“GROWING YOUNG is a new play by the promising Scot Williams. To say that The Liverpool Playhouse is investing much faith in it’s latest protégé and his play, would be an understatement”

“It’s not everyday that an 18 year old is responsible for writing a play that has been treated with the respect that GROWING YOUNG has received. It is a varied mix of social realism, comic observation and stylised monologue, in a sort of non-naturalistic setting, surprisingly it works. GROWING YOUNG is extremely well written”
