“You know like in A Midsummer Night’s Dream where they go to the forest and they explore all these different things – like the donkey and the different creations – porn is like that isn’t it?” – 14 year old girl, Manchester, February 2018

Theatre-makers Abbey Wright, Shireen Mula and Matt Regan interviewed 10,000 6-22 year olds on what they think love is and the effect of pornography on their lives. Why is the Sky Blue? is the result of these interviews.

In the real words of young people, Why is the Sky Blue? is a blistering and funny new piece of verbatim theatre. With explicit references to pornography and masturbation throughout, this show contains verbatim songs, live music, improvisation and is performed by a company of 6-22 year olds.
