Island a play for children at the National Theatre, London

Island

National Theatre Learning presents Nicky Singer's absorbing new play for young audiences. 15-25 February

In the middle of the Arctic Ocean lies an island where it is always day. The ice groans and cracks, the ground shifts under your feet, and skies flash with ice storms that freeze flesh in thirty seconds flat. Little wonder Cameron is reluctant to spend a week of his school holidays there.

Cut off from the rest of the world on this deserted island, he has no computer or phone and his iPod is fast running out of battery. Armed with dustbin lids to ward off any danger, he sets out to see if the island is, indeed, uninhabited.

Suitable for 8yrs+ | Tickets: Adults £12, under-18yrs £8
