'You've no money, no career, no substance. You're renting these days, people think there's something wrong with you.' Alan and Nicola are a couple desperate to keep pace with the boom time. However, when Alan's sister Amy is involved in a scandal, Alan finds himself questioning his values and wondering if success can truly be measured by money, ambition and material gain. The Grown-Ups is a modern-day thriller that has at its heart the malaise of a society 'seduced by extravagance'.The play received its world premiere at the Abbey Theatre's Peacock Theatre, Dublin, on 10 February 2006.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nicholas Kelly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0413775941\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780413775948\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e A\u0026amp;c Black 3pl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/09\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.19lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.82h x 5.06w x 0.24d","brand":"Nicholas Kelly","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47579585216767,"sku":"9780413775948","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e5998f8f-b974-44c9-9060-c07fdcb0c2c0.jpg?v=1763875215","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-grown-ups-nicholas-kelly-9780413775948","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
