Epic fantasy tale The Chronicles of Atom & Luna is heading on tour this autumn. The magical children’s adventure from Funnelwick Limb, by poet, writer and broadcaster Murray Lachlan Young (BBC 6 Music), follows young heroes Atom and Luna on a fantastical journey through nature and time.
When Atom and Luna, who have been left home alone, are saved from starvation by an unexpected visitor Iffley Sney, it leads to a series of magical events. When Iffley falls terribly ill, only the twins can save him, and on a journey that will change their lives forever, they must head into the forbidden forest to seek out Old Mother Redbeard.
Writer, Murray Lachlan Young, comments, I’m so excited we are going to be bringing Atom and Luna to life, a project the team and I have been working on since lockdown! It’s a wonderful, epic fairy tale – it’s got heart, it’s got soul, it’s got strange characters and above all else it takes you on a magical adventure. It’s been such fun imagining and writing the show, so I can’t wait to see it realised live on stage.
