MICHAEL MORPURGO’S FARM BOY
Adapted
& directed by Daniel Buckroyd.
It
sometimes felt as though time had stood still down on the farm – the old
Fordson tractor quietly rusting away at the back of the barn, Grandpa tending
his chickens – that is, until the summer his grandson came to stay, and the old
man started telling stories of what it had been like when he was a boy.
Following
successful UK tours and a critically acclaimed run in New York, Michael
Morpurgo's compelling sequel to 'War Horse' returns to the stage in this
delightful, family-friendly show combining drama, storytelling, and original
music – a moving account of the changing face of the English countryside and a
beautifully crafted reminder that stories really can reach out across the
generations.
