Skellig on Tour

Birmingham Stage Company is to tour its stage version of David Almond's Skellig this autumn, following succesful runs in London and Birmingham last year. After the tour, which ends on 5th December, it will have a Christmas run at London's UCL Bloomsbury Theatre.

Skellig tells the story of ten-year-old Michael, who had been looking forward to moving into a new house. But now his baby sister is ill and his parents are frantic. Then Michael wanders into the crumbling garage and sees something lying beneath the spider webs and flies - is it a man or an animal? Michael confides in his new friend Mina and together they carry the creature Skellig into the light, changing their world forever.
