Wonder Boy

Work:: Wonder Boy (S1819942484)

Struggling with a severe stammer, a schoolboy finds help in a teacher who champions him; but he also has the attention of his comic book creation Captain Chatter, and taunting supervillain William Shakespeare. A dynamic and tender play that explores the failings of language and grief.
