A darkly comic debut play about confession and the gravity of young love.
Ramona is fifteen, hates bananas, and she's totally cool. Honestly. She's completely cool.
It's 1998, and Ramona, of Englandshire, is on a wet, midge-riddled geography field trip, deep in the Scottish Highlands. There she meets Jim, a local laddie obsessed with hermit crabs, rock erosion and spider plants.
When Ramona falls for Jim's awkward charm, she gets caught in a scandal that will haunt her for years to come.
Sophie Wu's Ramona Tells Jim was commissioned by and first performed at the Bush Theatre, London, in September 2017.
'Sophie Wu has a knack for nifty dialogue. Her debut play is an engaging, quirky 80-minute piece about the kinship of oddballs and the disruptiveness of innocence' — Guardian
