On the same day each year, he and its colourful cast of part-time actors have staged a fantastical production just for his little girl, a moment of magic to make her childhood unforgettable.

And now, with Hannah a funny, tough girl of fifteen, that time is coming. Hannah’s heart is literally broken - and she can’t bear the idea of her dad’s breaking too.
