This is a funny, warm and irresistibly generous tale which deals with challenging subjects and strong emotions as it tells the story of a boy who refuses to give up. Colin's brother Luke is very ill and while the doctors decide what they can do, Colin is sent from Australia to stay in London. But Colin doesn't just want to sit around waiting for his brother to get better - and so begins a young boy's quest which not only gets him into trouble with his relatives and the police, but also enables Colin to discover what is truly important in his life. This leading children's theatre company from Scotland has recently won a Vicor Award at the International Showcase of Performing Arts for Young People in the USA. Suitable for age 9 plus.
