A Monster Calls

A devised stage adaptation of Patrick Ness's novel, from an idea by Siobhan Dowd, A Monster Calls follows 13-year-old Conor as he struggles with his mother's illness, the pressures of school and the burden of emotions he cannot easily express. Night after night, he is visited by a towering monster that arrives with stories, forcing Conor towards difficult truths about fear, anger and grief.
