Written by the country's funkiest female writer Isabel Wright, blooded is intimately set in the round and follows events at the end of a memorable summer, "the summer that everything got kicked out of place". When something horribly beautiful is washed up on the beach one day, a fearless gang of girls find themselves torn apart.

It was a magic Summer!
With music and messin’
And nights where it never got dark for hours
And a dead girl lying on the beach

Bernie, with more than her fair share of family responsibility, suddenly has a secret.
Amy, ever-ready with her fists, has a point to prove and is not afraid of anyone.
Donna, has a name for herself, but only she knows the truth.
Lou, needs to recapture her best friend’s attention and finds a new way to get it.
Tess, has been called "freak" just one time too many.

Startlingly original and rhythmically driven, blooded is an uncomprising and raw evocation of what it means to be female at the crossroads of life. Body image, sex, love, identity and expectations are all explored in Isabel Wright’s boldly unique style.
