Like Jon Jory's University, these are mini-plays that connect and create a fascinating full evening of theatre. These plays are as real, as hard-hitting, as poignant and as funny as those in University, but in this case they're concerned with lives of people just a little younger.

The title of this work is entirely appropriate. The play begins with Love in ways that are at times touching and at other times wryly humorous. Then the play proceeds to Death as some young people have to cope with the staggering news of a suicide. And, of course, it ends with the Prom. 

Out of these three related themes comes a fulfilling sense of beginning to understand, appreciate and enjoy these people and this time of life.
