The Honey Man
by New Perspectives Theatre Company
A fascinating and beautifully detailed account of the unlikely relationship that develops one summer between Misty, a 15 year-old girl, and The Honey Man, an 'ancient' African-Caribbean man who has taken up residence in a derelict cottage at the edge of the picture-postcard English village where she lives.
It's a tale of growing up and growing old, of individual responsibility and shared history, of dying bees, healing herbs and (possibly) just a little magic.
This magical production is presented by New Perspectives, one of the region's most popular and accomplished rural touring theatre companies.
