"Float" by Kirby Thompson & Orla Graham is a raw and real look at life for students in Belfast, dealing with fun, friendships, and some serious issues🎢 Think of it like ‘The Breakfast Club’ but with a modern, gritty twist!

Erin, Mia, Caitlyn, and Grace take us through the ups and downs of their lives, from messy kitchens and wild parties to the darker sides of trust and trauma. It’s not just a simple coming-of-age story but a deep dive🥽 into heavy topics like assault, blending humour and heartbreak...

Don’t be fooled by the promo—it’s not all about the lighter side of being in your twenties! It’s more about growing and rising above life's tragedies with the help of friends. It’s real, it’s touching, and it’s got a message that hits home...💜

The actors bring a lot of energy and share great chemistry, although sometimes it feels a bit too much. They keep us hooked, letting us peek into the characters’ lives but not fully letting us inside their heads. This leaves us guessing and wanting to know more!🕵️‍♂️

While the characters share their thoughts on each other, it’s like we’re kept at arm’s length, wondering whose story is really being told. It adds a layer of mystery but also feels like it’s masking something more...

The stage is simple, but it works, letting the story and the characters shine. And while the themes are serious, there’s a sprinkle of humour to balance things out, reminding us that even in tough times, there’s room for laughter...🙃

In short, Float is a journey through joy and pain, a story of strength and growth, showing us that even in our darkest times, we can find a way to "float" above it all with a little help from our friends. 3/5🌟🎭
