When out of the blue Danny decides to become Joy’s carer, they discover a shared playfulness and a mutual affection. But is that enough to take on the challenges ahead? Finding Joy is based on life events and true stories, and brims with all the visual inventiveness, music, puppetry, dexterity and hilarity that we have come to expect from one of the UK’s foremost full mask theatre companies.

Back on the pitch following a season which has been hampered by a knee injury sustained in the pre-season friendly at Scarlets back in August, the talented 20-year-old says he is clearly keen to make up...
