‘My family and I saw Poor Boy last night and thought it was fantastic. The cast were wonderful and the story and music were very entertaining.’ – Jane Pond (27/01/09)
‘We absolutely loved it and Tim, you have hits on your hands. The music was wonderful, story intriguingly different, but with a soul.’ – Helen McInroy (29/01/09)
Jeremy Glass is an untroubled little boy until his seventh birthday, when he suddenly announces that he is really a grown man called Danny, who died some years before. How can his parents indulge his conviction that he must find his real family? And how can his eerie insistence on his true identity not resurrect painful memories for Danny’s widow?
Little boy lost. With songs from Tim Finn adding expressionistic commentary on the action, Matt Cameron’s Poor Boy delivers a supernatural story steeped in loss, anguish and redemption.
