Spanning 3 generations, Coram Boy is at once a glorious love story and an epic thriller. It is a spell-binding, heart-breakingly beautiful tale of fathers and sons, mothers and daughters, children lost and found, betrayal and murder. And love. And the redemption that love brings.

STAND UP FOR THE CHILDREN ~ WEDNESDAY 27 NOVEMBER 7.00 PM

bAKEHOUSE is asking the audience to stand during the performance and join in with the Hallelujah chorus, a tradition that began in conjunction with Handel’s annual benefit concert for the Coram Hospital, and one of the first examples of art for social change. Working with Oz Harvest, this event called Stand Up for the Children will be raising funds and awareness for the most vulnerable, at a time of great excess.
