Jonathan Church Theatre Productions and Global Creatures have announced a tour of A Monster Calls. Directed by Sally Cookson and based on an idea by Siobhan Dowd, the A Monster Calls Tour launches at the Rose Theatre Kingston from 24 March 2022. Stories are wild creatures, the monster said. When you let them loose, who knows what havoc they might wreak? Thirteen-year-old Conor and his mum have managed just fine since his dad moved away. But now his mum is sick and not getting any better. His grandmother won’t stop interfering and the kids at school won’t look him in the eye. Then, one night, Conor is woken by something at his window. A monster has come walking. It’s come to tell Conor tales from when it walked before. And when it’s finished, Conor must tell his own story and face his deepest fears. From the critically acclaimed bestseller, A Monster Calls offers a dazzling insight into love, life and healing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XIAHpRpuEVM “We are so thrilled to be remounting our adaptation of A Monster Calls, especially at a time when young people are reeling from the effects of the Pandemic.
