Paralysed from the shoulders down in an accident at age just 17, Henry Fraser wrote a best selling autobiography about his experiences.All success in an enterprise comes from valuing and engaging people, The Economic Times, 6 August 2010 Row C is still very close to the stage. They’re comfortable, though they do make you sit up straight. Legroom is limited, but much better than row A (which are cramped), but still next to no space for coats, bags etc.. C1 and C2 are at the end of the row, affording a little more room for whoever takes the row end seat. That said, the aisles are often in use (in The Little Big Things they have ramps) so don’t expect to be able to put items alongside.

Triumph, however, is no mean feat. Among stories of disability, there is no shortage of trauma and hardship, and The Little Big Things makes a convincing case instead for the power of gumption, gladness and gusto. This is most movingly expressed deep in Act 2, when the uninjured Fraser tells his older, disabled self: “I can’t wait to become you.” Night bus numbers: (Tottenham Ct Rd Station) 7, 10, 14, 24, 134, 242, N7, N29, N35, N68, N73, N253, N279; (New Oxford St) 25, 176, 390, N1, N8, N41, N55, N98, N171, N207 Experience this awe-inspiring true-story about an ordinary young man on an extraordinary journey, and be the first to see this world premiere production at @sohoplace Theatre in London.Speaking about the show, Fraser told BBC News, “There have been many things that have happened since my accident that I never thought about in life, never planned and really surprised me, in a great way. This musical is one of those moments. The guys have been great to work with and the moment they played me a couple of songs I was sold.” Inspiring story told by an outstanding cast, struggling for words to describe this beautiful production.

Can Tom Peters Help Us Find Excellence In An America That Needs To Re-Set Its Thinking?
