This summer Total Insight Theatre are touring LEANDRO, a fun-filled family adventure that follows an 8-year old boy named Leandro who dreams of running for Brazil in the Rio Olympics. An inspired mix of puppetry, poetry and Brazilian music, the play brings the magic of Rio to London this summer.

Total Insight Theatre is a non-profit community theatre company that partners with schools, councils and museums to provide affordable and accessible theatre to those who do not regularly access theatre. With over 700 free tickets and no paid ticket costing more than £7, LEANDRO is a truly fun and accessible family show that invites all Londoners for a run around Rio to help Leandro fulfil his dream.

Note to editors: We are proud to be supporting ABC Trust with this production. ABC Trust is a charity that transforms the lives of the most vulnerable children and young people in Brazil.

Cast includes: Anna Rowland, Isambard Rawbone, Dominic Attenborough

Creative team: Tom Harding Assinder (writer/director), Jan Zalud (puppet design), Almudena Calvo (puppetry direction), Sharon Henry (movement direction), Ollie Tunmer (percussion direction)
