Lyrics by Hannah Castleman & Julian Payne
Xander's world is turned upside down following the death of his mother. Feeling lost and alone, he pushes everyone who loves him away until he is approached by a pair of mysterious strangers. Both offer Xander the hand of friendship, but one of them will lead him down a dark path whilst the other will guide him to a brighter place.
The question is: whose hand will he take?
Using the words and experiences of the cast themselves, ENCORE Youth Theatre has created a contemporary life-affirming story with a stunning original score that gives a powerful voice to young people living through the challenges of recent times.
Suitable for 11+ - This production explores some challenging themes and contains some strong language and enacted violence.
