A powerful coming-of-age story about seeing beyond the labels society places on us.
The Outsiders follows 14-year-old Ponyboy Curtis and his fellow Greasers, a group of working-class teenagers caught in a bitter rivalry with the wealthy Socs.
When a violent confrontation changes everything, Ponyboy and his friend Johnny are forced to confront the consequences of their actions.
As tensions between the two groups escalate, friendships and loyalties are tested.
Ponyboy begins to realise that the Socs aren’t so different from the Greasers after all.
Through tragedy, courage and unexpected friendships, the boys are forced to grow up quickly.
At its heart, the play explores belonging, identity, family, class and the destructive nature of violence.
