Spoonface is a 9-year-old girl with an infectious perspective on life. She is affected by autism, and her quirky and eloquent take on the world around her is mesmerising, poignant, and at times, very funny.

But as we hear about Spoonface's love of opera, her savant qualities, and the complex lives of the grown ups around her, we slowly realise she's terminally ill, and that we are witnessing the swansong of a quite extraordinary little girl. From the writer of Billy Elliot, this beautiful play had motorists pulling over to weep when first broadcast on Radio 4.

Spoonface Steinberg is written by Lee Hall, multi-award winning writer of Billy Elliott, Cooking with Elvis and The Pitman Painters.
