A Monster Calls

Based on the novel by Patrick Ness and inspired by an original idea by Siobhan Dowd.

Conor has the same dream every night, ever since his mother first fell ill. But tonight is different. Tonight, when he wakes, there’s a visitor at his window. This ancient, elemental force of nature demands the most dangerous thing of all – the truth. Conor must find a way to tell his story and face his deepest fears.

Patrick Ness’s extraordinary and heartbreaking novel was first adapted in 2018 for the Old Vic Theatre and since then, A Monster Calls continues to weave its stunning story of love, loss and courage.
