WE ARE FAMILYAn 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. …
