Event description

Growing Pains is BACK!

This collection of original short performances examine the journey of growing up, capturing the highs, lows, and in-betweens of youth today.

Created and performed by the talented students of Sunderland College and MTS, these young artists reveal their hopes, fears, and dreams for the future, offering a look at what it means to find yourself in a changing world.

Through a vibrant mix of songs, monologues, dances, comedy, and more, each piece brings a fresh perspective on what matters to young people in today’s society. Whether exploring friendships, family, or their personal struggles and triumphs, Growing Pains celebrates the resilience, creativity, and vision of a new generation.

Join us for an inspiring evening that highlights the voices, stories, and talents of these incredible young performers shaping tomorrow!
