Written by one of England’s leading writers for young audiences, Mike Kenny, Walking the Tightrope is a sweet and funny story of a grandfather who, while trying to tell his 5 year-old granddaughter that Grandma is gone, goes about building a beautiful new relationship with her. With the help of a single clown, they discover the meaning of family. 24th Street Theatre’s acclaimed production uses sophisticated video, sound design and original music to transport audiences from Grandad’s quaint 1959 English seaside cottage to the spectacular big top of circus.

 

"Delicately poised between children's fable and adult reverie at once, only to become another transcendent thing altogether, Walking the Tightrope at 24th Street Theatre delivers the evocative, cathartic goods.”  —Los Angeles Times, Critic's Choice
