Under The Parasol is an early years theatre project based in Morley’s schools and libraries and Little London Children Centre.
Based on the Smarties Book Prize winning novel Hue Boy, the touring theatre performance explores themes of family, self-esteem, community, food from other cultures, healthy living and fathers and sons. The workshops encourage children to create and perform their own stories and develops literary skills.
A heart-warming tale set in a Caribbean village, Hue Boy is performed by the actor Stewart Thomas to children aged four to seven. Set in a beautiful environment designed by theatre designer Alison Heffernan, the children will be invited to sit in the story telling zone and enjoy this unique interactive experience.
