This October Chelmsford Cathedral is delighted to be hosting a performance of Cups on a String, a new play by Riding Lights Theatre Company in partnership with Transforming Lives for Good, a Christian charity that helps churches to bring hope and a future to struggling children. Developed from remarkable true stories, Cups on a String is challenging, surprising and hopeful, taking audiences into the heart of the friendship between a child and their coach, and the profound impact it has on them both.
About the play
Joe’s eleven and home is hard. School is even harder. He breaks stuff: pencils, chairs, rules. One thing he won’t break is his silence. Heather’s fifty-seven. She’s got a comfortable life and a comfortable home. But once a week, every week, she spends a very uncomfortable hour – with Joe. Where will this journey of hours and weeks take them?
Alongside the performance of Cups on a String, the evening will provide an opportunity to hear about the work of Transforming Lives for Good, and how each of us can play a part in supporting the lives of struggling children.
We hope you will join us and be part of this remarkable theatrical experience.
