Small story, mighty punch

The Smallest Story, written by Robert Flynn, is the back-to-front love story of Charlie and Amy Donnelly.

At turns tenderly heartwarming and hilarious, the play follows Charlie as he comes to terms with losing Amy by remembering their time together in reverse order, back to the point that they first met.

The play enjoyed a run at The Kings Head in London where Francesca Mepham of Carn’s Theatre Passion described it as “A ‘comedy-drama about how to survive grief’ [that] displays everything that is so joyous about living”.

And Rachael Simmons of the Everything Theatre Company said: “The Smallest Story Ever Told packs a mighty punch … this play made you grateful for health, happiness and memories.”
