Charlie Stemp stars as the eponymous Arthur Kipps, an orphan and over-worked draper’s assistant at Shalford’s Bazaar, Folkestone, at the turn of the last century. He is a charming but ordinary young man who, along with his fellow apprentices, dreams of a better and more fulfilling world, but he likes his fun just like any other, except not quite. When Kipps unexpectedly inherits a fortune that propels him into high society, it confuses everything he thought he knew about life.

When one moment changes everything, Henry’s family are split between a past they no longer recognise, and a future they could never foresee. Based on the Sunday Times best-selling autobiography by Henry Fraser, The Little Big Things is a uplifting and colourful new British musical with an explosive theatrical pop soundtrack in a world premiere production.
