About Daryl & Friends: Boxed In

Ever felt like everyone got the rulebook… except you?

Meet Derek and Jon, two best friends on a mission to crack the code of life's most baffling instructions. When “stop” means “go”, “up” turns into “down” and no one explains why – what do you do?

Boxed In is a playful adventure packed family show with movement, silly surprises, laugh out loud moments and just the right amount of chaos. But underneath all the fun and games, it's about something every single one of us has felt - that feeling of not quite fitting in. 

But you're not alone. And you're not doing it wrong. Sometimes the world just needs a little shaking up.

A co-production by Daryl & Co. and Half Moon, Boxed In is an exciting collaboration between a ground-breaking Disabled-led theatre company and the UK’s leading small-scale young people’s venue and touring company.


Boxed In is largely non-verbal. This makes it accessible to a wide range of people, including d/Deaf, hard of hearing, BSL users and non-English speakers.  Accessible. Inclusive. Made for everyone.
