Synopsis: Charlie Ashanti lives in a future where phones are powered by the sun, cars are banned, and companies are more powerful than countries. Charlie is a perfectly normal boy, except for one thing: he can speak to cats. When his parents are kidnapped, he sets off on a rescue mission – with a little help from a floating circus and its pride of performing lions.
Why it's great: Based on the trilogy of bestselling novels, this sparkling adaptation – staged by acclaimed theatre company Complicite on tour around the world – fuses storytelling and circus to magical effect. It offers lots of opportunities for creative design work, using props and an inventive approach to sound to trigger the audience's imagination.
