Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Ever since we made and toured this show, audiences have been telling me I should do it in partnership with a children’s charity because it’s so powerful and poignant.

So what better time than LOCKDOWN!

Tommy Foggo-Superhero is a magical multi-media tale of a life saved by music for 7+ and their guardians, based on a true story.

Tommy’s mum had told him to wait for her at the bus stop and never showed up again. It felt to Tommy like he’d been stuck there for a zillion years – even after he’d been taken to live in the children’s home. And then, one day, he runs away – to the seaside, where he finds Destino, a talking cello with a mission.

Will Tommy be big enough to defeat the terrifying Kraken of the Deep and rescue the Queen of Lost Atlantis?

Brought to you by award-winning composer Stephen Deazley, writer Martin Riley and ‘extraordinary cellist, virile baritone & compelling actor’ (Daily Telegraph), Matthew Sharp.
