SONATA FOR A MAN AND A BOY

Who says you've got to act your age, not your shoe size?

Sonata for a Man and a Boy is a duet featuring live cello music, chat and movement. An everyday cello lesson becomes a journey into the unexpected for a boy who’s nearly twelve and a thirty-something man. As their roles shift and change and the lesson is turned on its head we begin to wonder: do we ever really grow up?
