Pobby & Dingan Description
In association with Brunton Theatre
Written by Ben Rice, adapted for the stage by Rob Evans
Sometimes we have to believe in the impossible
What if you lived in the middle of nowhere?
What if your dad spent all day searching for something he might never find?
What if your mum dreamed of living on the other side of the world?
And what if your sister was a fruit‐loop who spent all day playing with two invisible
friends?
12 year‐old Ashmol lives in the Australian outback with his mum, dad and his little
sister Kellyanne… and her two invisible friends Pobby and Dingan.
One day, Pobby and Dingan disappear. At first Ashmol is happy that the imaginary
friends are out of his life, but Kellyanne becomes sick. The longer Pobby and Dingan
are lost, the sicker Kellyanne becomes. Finally Ashmol decides that there is only one
thing to do: he must find Pobby and Dingan.
Pobby and Dingan is a heartbreaking and beautiful contemporary tale about the
possibility of dreams, the preciousness of hope and how, sometimes, we have to
believe in the impossible.
