Conor has the same dream every night, ever since his mother first fell ill. But tonight is different. Tonight, when he wakes, there’s a monster at his window. It’s elemental, a force of nature, and it wants something from Conor. It wants the truth. Conor is struggling. His mom is very ill – his grandmother bosses him around – his dad has a new family in America – and there are horrible bullies at school. And now, at 12:07, in the middle of the night, a monster comes for him. The monster promises him three stories, and then Conor will tell the fourth – and it will be the truth. A powerful and important story of love, hope, and loss, told with imaginative staging, movement, and plenty of theatre magic.
