Astrid Wentworth is a City trader, a ruthless player in a man's world. If there is a special hell for women who don't help each other, Astrid's got the top table reserved and a Martini waiting. But, when the young and ambitious Priya applies for a junior position on the trading floor, Astrid recognises something in her and decides to give her a go. After all, what's gender got to do with it? Featuring an all-female cast and cabaret music, Boys Will Be Boys received its European premiere at Bush Hall in 2016, in an exhilarating co-production between Headlong and the Bush Theatre, London.
