Thirty 8–10 year olds were asked to talk about their lives, their thoughts, their world. In Monkey Bars their words are spoken by adults. Not adults playing children, but adults playing adults, in adult situations.
Fresh from a sell-out run at the Edinburgh Festival and the Unicorn, Fringe First 2012 Award-winner, Monkey Bars is a revelatory verbatim show that is funny, touching and endlessly surprising. This show is a Unicorn play for adults, about children.
