WE ARE FAMILY
An empowering one-person performance poetry show all about family! For children (aged 5+) and their grown ups.
Written and performed by award-winning children’s author, Oliver Sykes.
Meet six kids and their amazing Super-Dad!
There’s Dad’s disgusting nettle soup and peculiar pancakes, horrible home haircuts, punishing press-ups and scum in the bathtub. BUT then there’s the joy of boxing lessons with Dad, fun family outings, jokes and pranks – and storytelling round the fire. Not to mention a homemade birthday cake like no other!
Oliver’s real-life childhood – rough, tough but happy – is vividly depicted in this groundbreaking debut story told in poems. …
"Joyful and soulful – from a necessary new voice!" DOM CONLAN, Double Carnegie-award-nominated author of the Wild Wanderer series.
'The wonderfully talented Oliver Sykes invites us on a journey into the intricacies of his family upbringing in this collection of powerful poems." BOOKTRUST
"A writer of immense heart and talent." PHIL EARLE
"Beautiful, honest and bursting with heart." RASHMI SIRDESHPANDE
