The ShowAfter delighting audiences across the country, the smash-hit, joyful play based on the best-selling novel is back with a celebration of friendship, kindness and compassion.
There used to be an empty chair at the back of the class, but now a new boy called Ahmet is sitting in it.
He's nine years old (just like me), but he's very strange.
He never talks and never smiles and doesn't like sweets - not even lemon sherbets, which are my favourite!After learning that he has fled his own war-torn country, Ahmet's classmates have 'The Greatest Idea in the World' - a magnificent plan to reunite Ahmet with his family.
Told from a child's perspective, balancing heart and humour, The Boy at the Back of the Class highlights the power of good friends and courage in a world that doesn't always make sense and reminds us that everyone needs a place to call home.
Based on the book by Onjali Q.
Rauf, adapted for the stage by Nick Ahad and directed by Monique Touko.
A Children's Theatre Partnership and Rose Theatre production.
