Details

For The Best tells the stories of children attending the hospital school on the Dialysis Unit of the Evelina Children's Hospital. Developed over 9 months with the young people, their parents, primary school children, artists and performers. For The Best leads the audience on a journey beyond the stage into the wings, corridors and backstage of the Unicorn, past startling images and moments of breathtaking beauty. Crossing the boundaries of art and science, For the Best turns the Unicorn inside out and upside down. It explores how we live within the limits of our bodies and minds and, ultimately, transcend them. Created to be experienced by everyone aged 6 and above. Funded by a Wellcome Trust Award. Supported by the Hedley Foundation. Running time approx. 80 minutes
