👉This NEW WORK directed by KIMBERLY STUCKWISH for Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats "Heartless" draws on her personal experience to tell the story of a young boy trying to escape his circumstances. ⁠
⁠
'Set in a rural town the boy takes multiple walks down the same neighborhood street, but finds himself trapped. Only when he shifts his perspective does a new outcome present itself. Along the way, he learns the valuable lesson of connection and survival'.
⁠
'Growing up poor as dirt, in a part of the world long forgotten, I often found myself running away from my tumultuous upbringing diving head first into books, studies, writing, and theatre, all in search of a different life. Through the arts, I found and continue to find my freedom. In many ways, I modelled our lead character (Kevin Kelley) after myself. I was at first angry, blaming the world for what happened when we were kids, but eventually learned that by showing kindness, I was able to free myself of the pain. I am so thankful Nathaniel trusted me with such a personal and important song for the world. ' Says Stuckwisch.

In this touching spot from Jake Mavity, we see a series of children talking about their feelings and emotions. Something that McDonald's x Mental Health Awareness Week is encouraging families to do more of.

In 'The Meal', the kids find that the smiles have been taken off Happy Meal boxes because "we don’t always feel like smiling".

Jake has brought out perfect performances from the children, who all “express themselves openly, which is a real breath of fresh air” says The Drum where it was Ad Of The Day.
