ABOUT THE SHOW
Max and Stevie are just two wee guys trying to survive in an ordinary Scottish secondary school. But to survive, sometimes you need to hide. And there’s no hiding when you’re a VL.
VL is a Virgin Lips. It means you’ve never kissed a lassie, or a laddie. The longer you stay a VL, the more of a VL you become.
Another raucous and riotous comedy from the Fringe First Award-winning writers of Square Go, about young boys trying to navigate love, romance and status in the chaotic, hormonal pressure cooker of a small-town school.
