The Little Big Things
Based on the Sunday Times best-selling memoir by Henry Fraser, The Little Big Things is an extraordinary true story about an ordinary young man.
Henry Fraser, an avid sportsman and academy player with a premiership Rugby club, has his life changed in an instant when a diving accident leaves him paralysed from the shoulders down. The show explores Henry's journey of emotional and physical recovery, as he grapples with the loss of his former life and learns to navigate the world in a new way. Told through the innovative use of two actors portraying Henry before and after the accident, the story highlights the contrast between his past ambitions and present realities. With the unwavering support of his close-knit family and a growing passion for art, Henry begins to rediscover himself and redefine what it means to live a fulfilling life.
The musical is a powerful celebration of resilience, the importance of mental strength, and how small moments (or 'little big things') can have a profound impact on our lives. The Little Big Things provides theatre groups with a unique opportunity to explore deeply human characters alongside a dynamic pop score.
