Written and Performed by Mimi Martin 
Directed by Jessica Whiley

Inspired by true events, Millie is a cheeky British teenage expat living in Hong Kong whose world is upended during the 2019 regime protests. Through her friendship with local classmate Jesse, she is drawn into the heart of the cause and realizes that her carefree attitude can have real consequences. 

Youth in Flames is about trying to find a sense of belonging in a rapidly changing world – and the cost of ignorance when our attention is needed most. 

Direct from its sell-out season at the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe and Winner of The Scotsman Newspaper Fringe First Award for Excellence in New Writing.
