Details
When Joe was 18 he went to Uganda, a typical Gap year kid. He whitewater rafted the Nile, went on safari, taught in an orphanage - ticked all the boxes. He made a lot of friends. Little did he know that one friendship would follow him for ten years, all the way back to Manchester and beyond.
Educating Ronnie is a semi-autobiographical show about the relationship between Joe and Ronnie. It tells the story of Joe financially supporting Ronnie's education in Uganda, over a number of years. It explores what can happen when trying to bridge the 6000-mile gap and how good intentions can easily become guilty burdens.
