Report: Extra Geography review – a wickedly funny lesson in sex, class and female friendship

The Guardian — Culture has reported on “Report: Extra Geography review – a wickedly funny lesson in sex, class and female friendship,” presenting it as the central development in the source material available for this brief.

The available account reports that a boarding-school escapade becomes a wonderfully acted coming-of-age comedy, as two best friends find their world threatened by desire and adulthood Rose Tremain’s autobiographical short story, inspired by an escapade from her own boarding school days, has been transformed into an extremely funny, charming and tremendously well-acted comedy written by Miriam Battye and directed by Molly Manners, all about sex, class, friendship and the awful encroachment of adulthood. The report also notes that As well as everything else, it refuses the glib happy ending of the traditional coming-of-age movie. Newcomers Marni Duggan and Galaxie Clear give cracking performances as Flic and Minna, two year-10 girls and best friends for ever at a private school. They are not outsiders or emo losers; both are good at the brutal sport of lacrosse. Intent on raising their profile in advance of an attempt at Oxbridge, they audition for a production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, which involves boys from a neighbouring school.
