KINGS...Come Home
The Apollo Stages at The Victoria
KINGS...Come Home

KINGS…come home tells the story of a family in search of a new home. After leaving their original home, they embark on a journey to find prosperity, opportunity, and safety. They discover a house in the middle of a field, move in, and create their utopia—until the walls begin to shift, and the house gradually falls apart. As their journey continues, we witness the enduring effects of their constant displacement and how it reshapes their reality.

Stuntboy, In the Meantime

Stuntboy, In the Meantime

Apollo Education presents the musical adaptation of Jason Reynolds’s bestselling graphic novel, Stuntboy, In the Meantime. Step into the world of Portico Reeves in this inspiring family musical that captures the highs and hurdles of growing up, friendship, and the courage to overcome fears. This special School Day Live performance brings you on a heartfelt journey through the eyes of Portico, a middle schooler whose “superpower” is keeping his loved ones safe. But when his parents face divorce, Portico’s worries give him “the frets”—or what his Gran calls anxiety. Will his courage and imagination be enough to see him through?

Adapted from Jason Reynolds and Raúl the Third’s best-selling graphic novel, this musical features the award-winning writing of Melvin Tunstall (2018 Best Family Show Off-Broadway Alliance Award) and original music by South African songwriter and producer Greg Borowsky. Stuntboy, In the Meantime shows that everyone, young and old, has the power to conquer their “frets” and find strength in family, friendship, and self-belief.

Bring your class or family to The Apollo Stages at The Victoria and experience a story of resilience and love that will stay with you long after the final bow. Don’t miss out—reserve your seats today!

After the show on March 25th, stay for a Q&A with Stuntboy author Jason Reynolds.
