Boxed In

A quirky, thought-provoking exploration of the unspoken rules that shape our lives
‍
^{A Daryl & Co and Half Moon co-production} 

Meet Derek and Jon, two friends trying to understand life’s strange instructions. When “stop” means “go”, “up” turns into “down” and no one explains why – what do you do?

Everyone else seems to know the way, but what if you just don’t get it?Boxed In is a playful and thought-provoking journey about feeling left out, not because you’ve done something wrong, but because the world doesn’t always play fair.

It’s a story for anyone who’s ever felt a bit confused, a bit left out, or a bit boxed in.

Through movement, visual storytelling, humour and a touch of chaos, Boxed In explores the invisible rules of behaviour, the way people act and what others think you should do – and invites us all to imagine a world where everyone feels they belong

A co-production by Daryl & Co. and Half Moon, Boxed In is an exciting collaboration between a ground-breaking Disabled-led theatre company and the UK’s leading small-scale young people’s venue and touring company.

Boxed In  is largely non-verbal. This makes it accessible to a range of people, including d/Deaf, hard of hearing and non-English speakers. We will be providing easy-read synopsis, audio description introduction and touch tours.
