I want to grow all at once, swallow a pill, and become, in a few seconds, more grown up than a grown up... I want to be a train! Life's tough for Lenny. He's the short, skinny one who gets pushed around at school. His mum still chooses his clothes. He's stuck in the shadow of his popular older brother. So, he decides to transform himself. Secretly he begins eating iron nails and waiting for his legs to become wheels. A touching portrayal, shot through with humour, fantasy and astounding images, of how it feels to be small in a big world. This performance is perfect for adults and young people 10 and over so why not come as a family. Running time 55 mins with no interval
