Inspired by real-life student activism, Give ‘em Hell is a new play that retells the final school year leading up to the 2012 closure of Peterborough Collegiate and Vocational School (PCVS).

Written by Peterborough-born, award-winning playwright Madeleine Brown and featuring a cast of eight local teenagersGive ‘em Hell explores the power of youth activism, the perils of self-discovery and what it costs to stand up for a cause.

The play will be staged in the former PCVS building, now PACE, and accompanied by an exhibition of archival materials from this monumental turning point in the school’s history.
