When Rob was 12, they attempted a full-blown Disney parade in their house for their Grandma. As Rob donned wigs and played Mary Poppins, Ariel, Mickey Mouse and Belle, their Dad doubled as stage manager, sound technician and Goofy. This is the joyous, chaotic, autobiographical story of actor, writer and social-media sensation Rob Madge as they set out to recreate that parade - and this time, nobody, no, nobody is gonna rain on it. Nominee, Olivier Award 2023. Winner, What's On Stage's Best Off-West End Production Award 2022.

"A dream is a wish your heart makes, especially when it breaks, I guess," Rob Madge says, but it's with a smile.
