Written and directed by Alex Howarth based on real conversations with kids in care, it’s a shot to the heart. Profoundly moving in its bittersweet playfulness and candid approach to the matter, the production is scrupulously crafted to come off as child’s play. It exquisitely translates the world as if it was seen through the eyes of children, engaging into a blunt direct address that gives an atypical accessibility to the show. Alex Brain (Cassie) guides Helen Chong (Tin) and Emily McGlynn (Kit) as they tell their story. In doing so, she opens the pretence up into the audience, making them part of it too, in a succession of sweet instances.
