The Amber Amulet
Adapted for the stage and directed by John Sheedy
National best selling author Craig Silvey, has created a new generation of superhero in his short story The Amber Amulet.
Meet Liam McKenzie, a lonely twelve year old boy whose alter ego is the Masked Avenger - a superhero with powers so potent, so fast, not even he can fully comprehend their extent. Along with his sidekick, Richie The Powerbeagle, Liam protects the streets of his neighbourhood.
One night while on patrol, Liam meets Joan, a young woman weighed down by troubles, and there begins an extraordinary friendship. Does Liam hold the secret to restoring her happiness? And at what cost?
A stunning and hilarious coming of age story, filled with pathos and humour, The Amber Amulet will delight both the young and the young at heart.
Suitable for 8+ and families.
