SUMMARY:The Boy At The Back Of The Class - Bristol Old Vic
DESCRIPTION:There used to be an empty chair at the back of the class\, but now a new boy called Ahmet is sitting in it. He’s nine years old (just like me)\, but he’s very strange. He never talks and never smiles and doesn’t like sweets – not even lemon sherbets\, which are my favourite! \nAfter learning that he has fled his own war-torn country\, Ahmet’s classmates have ‘The Greatest Idea in the World’ – a magnificent plan to reunite Ahmet with his family. An unexpected and often hilarious adventure follows\, all topped off with a terrific twist. \nTold from a child’s perspective\, balancing heart and humour\, The Boy at the Back of the Class highlights the power of good friends and courage in a world that doesn’t always make sense and reminds us that everyone needs a place to call home.

SUMMARY:Clare Murphy: The Liar King - The Wardrobe Theatre
DESCRIPTION:Set in Syria\, phenomenal storyteller and guest on The Blindboy Podcast\, Clare Murphy (The Spanking Goddess & Other Discarded Tales) weaves a witty satire on the nature of power and stupid kings. \nIn Damascus a king is desperate to keep his throne\, a citizen is determined to win a life and Syria is at the mercy of a lie-obsessed king. Girls face monsters\, beggars face kings and no one knows which liar will win. The Liar King is an adaptation of the novel Damascus Nights by exiled Syrian writer\, Rafik Schami. \nClare blends contemporary reporting and folklore with her playful wit to unmask who has the real power in the world.
