David Walliams, that funny tall bloke from Little Britain, has written the smelliest book of all time and in this live world premiere Hackney Empire will break new wind, oops, we mean ground, with a scratch 'n' sniff production which will bring Mr Stink, pongingly to life. David Walliams, who's not in the show, really wants you to come and see it!
Chloe doesn’t like school very much. She isn’t as cool as the other kids. No iPhone, no DS and no friends. Then she meets Mr Stink – the local tramp. Yes, he smells a bit but he’s the only person whos ever been nice to her and that includes her mother – an awful snob who wants to be the local MP and is trying to rid the streets of its homeless. About to lose her only friend, Chloe finds Mr Stink a secret hiding place… but is there more to him than meets the nose?
