ON TOUR
Drizzle Boy
By Ryan Enniss
Directed by Daniel Evans
A NEURODIVERGENT ROCKET RIDE COMING TO YOUR REGION…
Drizzle Boy is autistic. Drizzle Boy is poked, prodded and diagnosed by a world that wants to change him and a family who doesn’t understand him. Then, on his first day of university, he meets Juliet and suddenly everything seems possible — even his lifelong dream of building a rocket and blasting-off toward the stars!
But Drizzle Boy’s day-to-day life is harder than navigating intergalactic space travel. He’s going to need all the help he can get — that’s where you come in! You’re invited to climb aboard this wildly audacious and wonderfully affirmative rocket ride as Drizzle Boy launches out into the regions as part of a tour throughout Queensland.
Drizzle Boy was the smash-hit of 2023 and we’re delighted to be able to introduce him to a whole new audience across the state. And, yes, in case you are wondering, Space Bear is definitely coming too!
