Win The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind tickets and dinner at Dear Jackie in London

If you love a memorable night out in London, combining inspiring theatre with great food, this is a competition not to miss.

We’re offering one lucky member the chance to win a pair of tickets to a powerful new musical - The Boy Who Harnessed The Wind - playing @sohoplace in the heart of the West End plus a pre-theatre dinner for two at Dear Jackie to make the occasion even more special.

Based on the international best-selling book, this bold and uplifting new musical tells the extraordinary true story of William Kamkwamba.

In drought-stricken Malawi, a 13-year-old boy dreams of saving his village. Nobody believes he can – not his father, his friends, nor his community. As crops fail and hope runs dry, William finds inspiration in scraps of old machinery and a handful of library books. What he lacks in resources, he makes up for in determination, grit and imagination, and a windmill begins to take shape. Can William defy expectations and harness the power of the wind to bring energy, life, and hope to his people?

Chiwetel Ejiofor, who wrote, directed, and starred in the 2019 film joins the West End production as Executive Producer.

Adapted from William Kamkwamba’s book and Ejiofor’s film, this West End premiere transfers directly from Stratford-upon-Avon, directed by Lynette Linton (Shifters, Sweat, Intimate Apparel, Blues for an Alabama Sky), formerly Artistic Director of the Bush Theatre, with book and lyrics by Richy Hughes (Superhero) and music and lyrics by Tim Sutton (Restless Natives, RSC’s The Merry Wives of Windsor).

A celebration of human ingenuity and the courage to dream in the face of impossible odds, The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind is a powerful story where imagination brings hope for tomorrow.

Before the show, our winner and their guest will enjoy a delicious meal at Dear Jackie, the flagship Italian restaurant hidden beneath Broadwick Soho. Known for its beautiful interiors and refined modern Italian dishes, it’s the perfect setting to begin your evening in style – with the likes of Madonna, Sabrina Carpenter, and Stanley Tucci amongst its fans.
