The Grumpiest Boy In The World
By Finegan Kruckemeyer, created by Box Jelly Theatre Co
Imagine if your drawings could come to life? Or transport you to another world? The Grumpiest Boy in the World, discovers that his sketches do just that!
Adapted from the adored picture book, this colourful story of imagination plays against a backdrop of vibrant illustrations.
Zachary wants to be different. So he thinks of all the other places out there – filled with giants, and hairy things, and flying things – places where he would not be middling at all.
The Grumpiest Boy in the World is a playful escapade celebrating ordinariness and extraordinariness – and the grumpiness that can come from thinking we have too much of one, or not enough of the other.
