From the multi award-winning writer Malorie Blackman OBE, brilliant novel Pig Heart Boy is brought to life in a brand-new adaptation by Winsome Pinnock. Directed by Tristan Fynn-Aiduenu, the production tells the story of Cameron, who needs a heart transplant. You can see the play at The Lowry in Salford from Wednesday 26 to Saturday 29 March.
‘Is it better to have a pig’s heart that works … than a human heart that doesn’t?
‘Cameron is thirteen, and all he wants is to be normal – have friends, go to school, and dive to the bottom of his local swimming pool. But he desperately needs a heart transplant and time is running out. When he’s finally offered a new heart, Cameron must choose how far he’ll go to get his life back.’
