FML explored the relevant issues for teenagers such as what drives young people to profound sadness or extreme violence. FML (F*ck My Life) had teenage performers and a teenage creative team, who were actual members of the generation who were the first not to grow up under the authority of the Roman Catholic Church, the first to enjoy universal affluence and the first to experience endemic violence and alienation with the highest teenage suicide rates in Europe

FML toured internationally to Scotland, England, Finland, Netherlands, N.Ireland, Germany and Belgium
