BristolCulture: Review: Lionboy, Bristol Old Vic
But don’t let the political signposting put you off. Above all, this is the story of Charlie Ashanti (Adetomiwa Edun), a little boy who can speak Cat.
But director Annabel Arden and her visual creations are the real stars of the show. You can’t fail to be impressed by a lion face created by the shadow of three people or Charlie’s impression of an elderly lion.
Guardian: Lionboy - review [★★★★☆]
Adetomiwa Edun as Charlie is both wily and good-hearted
Telegraph: Lionboy, Complicite, Bristol Old Vic, review [★★★☆☆]
For the most part, Adetomiwa Edun - clean and charismatic as Charlie - narrates. His words do the work.
