It’s Friday morning, first period at Senior Secondary School in Trinidad and Omega is pregnant.

Through “ritual” portrayals of the world around them her friends, five students, come to understand that the real key to empowerment lies within them.

The play is highly stylized—each actor plays one of the girls as well as members from their community—lecherous taxi drivers; sanctimonious bourgeois; attractive Rasta boys; pompous judges and frightened parents.
