 Marc Warren, Jonathan Slinger and Paul Ready star in this adaptation of Jamila Gavin's award-winning children's novel. Coram Boy tells the story of two orphans at the Coram Hospital For Deserted Children. The orphans are Toby, saved from an African slave ship, and Aaron, the abandoned son of the heir to a great estate. A story of fathers and sons, set in the dark heart of 18th-century England, Coram Boy is filled with danger and excitement. Music plays a significant part in the story and is performed throughout the piece by the Coram Boy Choir, Dulwich. Warren stars as Otis, with Slinger as Alexander and Ready as Meshak.
