A play designed for years 5 and 6
As a child Rhys struggled with many things – not being able to read was just one of them. As a result, he created an imaginary world that he inhabited – the place where he disappeared to when he felt bad or sad or lonely.
But now he wants to escape that world – and the one way he can see of doing this is harder than anything he has done before. He has to admit the truth.
Rhys lives in two realities: his real life and that which he has created in his own mind. The audience sees this alternate reality played out with the use of theatre masks.
The overriding message from this play is that if you believe you can do something, and work hard at achieving it, you can’t fail – you will either succeed or learn.
