A Monster Calls at South Lakes High School

A Monster Calls is based on the award-winning novel by Patrick Ness (inspired by an idea from Siobhan Dowd).When a towering yew-tree “monster” appears at 12:07, thirteen-year-old Conor begins a journey through wild, truthful, and sometimes painful stories that challenge what he thinks he knows about courage, love, and loss. Blending physical theatre, movement, and evocative visuals, this student production invites audiences to imagine boldly and feel deeply.
