LAStheatre presents
The Lion Inside
based on the award-winning book by Rachel Bright and Jim Field
Mouse lives in a house under a rock. At the top of the rock lives a Lion with the loudest roar of all the pack. Fed up of being ignored by the other animals, Mouse wishes he could roar like Lion. He tries and tries to find his roar, but in the end decides the only thing to do is to overcome his fear and ask Lion for help.
The Lion Inside is a show about confidence, self-esteem, and a shy little mouse who sets out on a journey to find his roar and discovers that even the smallest creature can have the heart of a lion.
LAStheatre’s production creatively and playfully explores: facing fears; building confidence; feeling positive; dealing with change; celebrating our differences and similarities; and playfully helping children transition back into the world post-lockdown.
