‘Complicite produces the most imaginative theatre to be found anywhere.’ Independent

‘Since 1983…Complicite has been helping us make sense of the world, making us laugh and weep and making us see things we would otherwise have missed...It is the reason I go to the theatre’ Telegraph

From the novels by Zizou Corder
Directed by Annabel Arden
Assistant Producer Poppy Keeling (shamefully not on the main flyers, but it's true)

Award-winning theatre company Complicite presents its first show for families and young people, inspired by Zizou Corder’s best-selling Lionboy trilogy and with a cast including Adetomiwa Edun from BBC’s Merlin.
