Winner of Best Radio Drama at the Celtic Media Awards 2020.

Petals is the story of one girl and her journey towards the night of a lifetime along with the trail of lust, longing and loss she finds on the way. Written entirely in verse, Petals takes a vibrant look at what it means to be sexually awakened in a city where school nuns shame, school boys leer; where less is more, no means yes and the beer-soaked nightclub is sanctuary.

Broadcasting at 6pm on Friday the 26th of April

Written by Gillian Greer
Directed by Jeda de Brí
