Layla's Room

Work:: Layla's Room (S244868016)

For Layla, every day is a battleground. The pay gap, the thigh gap, over-sexed pop an photoshopped selfies - they're just part of the world she lives in. But Layla's world is about to change. While breaking out of her bedroom - and with drama, comedy, poetry and music as her weapons - Layla breaks down and makes sense of the realities, difficulties and absurdities of teenage life in the UK today. Collected from a bespoke national survey, the voices of a thousand UK teens are brought to life in Layla. Their ambitions, concerns, role-models and regrets are woven together by award-winning Sabrina Mahfouz and offer a hard-hitting yet hopeful story.
