Three childhood friends reunite after one of them finds success in her children’s book series The Rat King Gospels. But whose idea was The Rat King? Is he merely a storybook hero? Secrets begin to unravel as they piece together the untold story of what really happened to the monstrously cruel headteacher, Mr Mackenzie. Rat King Gospel is a new drama touching on themes of morality, friendship, responsibility, and childhood trauma. The play explores how the games we play as children can stick with us as adults in ways which we never could have imagined.
