Little Leap Forward in Production


Barefoot Book's very first Young Fiction book, Little Leap Forward, is being brought to the stage! Little Leap Forward will be produced in the UK by Horse + Bamboo Theatre, which focuses on making visual theatre in which music and story-telling is central. We can't think of a better fit for bringing to life Guo Yue's sensory story of a young musician coming of age during China's Cultural Revolution.

The production is expected to open at The Royal Exchange Theatre in Manchester in early summer 2009. In the mean time you can follow the play's progress, from planning to opening night, on their wonderful blog, Little Leap Forward - The Story of a Production.
