It's Jem Glass' seventh birthday. The cake is made, the party is about to start. But something's wrong. Jem is about to shock the rest of the family with a startling announcement.

Across town, the Prior family still grieves for Danny, their eldest son, killed by a car seven years ago. All they have left are memories and regrets.

When Jem arrives at the Prior family home, the lives of these two fractured families are flung together and the gripping mystery begins to unravel.

"Seductive...theatrical...breathtaking visual sumptuousness"
-The Australian

"A poetic and gently entertaining piece"
-The Sunday Telegraph

"For Auckland's Festival Season we are thrilled that Raymond Hawthorne will direct a stellar cast in this New Zealand Premiere. Poor Boy is elegiac, poetic, redemptive and heartfelt. And of course it features Tim Finn's sublime music and lyrics such as Unsinkable, Poor Boy and I Hope I Never. A rare treat."
— Colin
