When George Boucher, a troublesome youth, narrowly misses serving time in prison for a violent offence, he is placed with a new, unconventional youth officer called David.
As George and David progress in their work together, David manages to slowly peel back George's defences and walls without him realising; allowing him the space and freedom to grow and heal.
Sessions is a play about the confines of toxic masculinity and trauma, which aims to grapple with how trauma lives in the body – and when it goes unaddressed it manifests into our behaviours and habits.
