Pig Heart Boy at the Unicorn Theatre
Sunday 26th January – Saturday 22nd February, for ages 9-13.
The Unicorn Theatre’s co-production of Pig Heart Boy with Sheffield Theatres and Children’s Theatre Partnership will make a whole new generation fall in love with Malorie Blackman’s classic '90s novel about a boy at the cutting edge of science, and at the centre of discourse because of it.
Cameron is thirteen, and all he wants is to be normal – have friends, go to school, and dive to the bottom of his local swimming pool. But he desperately needs a heart transplant and time is running out. When he’s finally offered a new heart, Cameron must choose how far he’ll go to get his life back.
This groundbreaking novel about hope, identity and resilience was shortlisted for a Carnegie Award before becoming a BAFTA award-winning TV series. It now makes its exciting stage debut in this brand-new adaptation by Winsome Pinnock, and directed by Tristan Fynn-Aiduenu.
