THANK YOU
to the thousands upon thousands of children, parents, teachers and theatre-goers who graced theatres across England to watch the first ever premiere and touring production of The Boy at the Back of the Class in 2024.
The tour has returned in 2026, venturing into new theatres across the country, and for the first time ever, crossing the borders into Wales and Scotland too!
BREAKING NEWS: As of 5th March 2026, the play has become a finalist for the prestigious Olivier Awards (Family Category)!
To say Nick, Monique, the fantastic 2026 cast and crews and I, along with O's Refugee Aid Team are beyond ecstatic is an understatement!
Thank you for making a dream beyond a dream come true. Whether we win or 'lose', being shortlisted as a finalist is deeply momentous.
And would not have been possible without you...
