The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind <\/a>Production Images:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This new RSC musical is coming straight from Stratford-Upon-Avon. The RSC have created many musicals which have gone on to be staples of the West End such us Matilda<\/a> and Les Miserables<\/a>. The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind<\/a> is based on a true story and subsequent novel. Set in drought-stricken Malawi, a 13-year-old boy dreams of saving his village. Nobody believes he can. Not his father, his friends, nor his community. As crops fail and hope runs dry, William finds inspiration in scraps of old machinery and a handful of library books. What he lacks in resources, he makes up for in determination, grit and imagination, and a windmill begins to take shape.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
