March 15 @ 19:30 - 20:30
Event Navigation
Shôn Dale-Jones created The Duke as a direct response to the refugee crisis, feeling compelled to take practical action to support displaced people, particularly children left helpless, homeless, and often parentless due to the circumstances they were born into.
Alongside Me & Robin Hood, The Duke has raised over £100,000 for charities supporting child refugees and street-connected children.
Funny, poignant, and playful, The Duke weaves together the tragi-comic fate of a family heirloom—a porcelain figure of The Duke of Wellington, the quandary of a scriptwriter struggling with his integrity, and an unfolding disaster as thousands of children flee their homes.
Blending fantasy and reality, this playful show gently challenges our priorities in a world full of crises.
