Cast
Plot
Stanley Yelnats is cursed, but he takes the burden on his young shoulders well. Sent to a desolate desert remand camp, Stanley and his new found buddies find themselves under the draconian rule of 'The Warden', a harsh and unrelenting creature who sets them to work digging hole after hole in an obsessive, but mysterious, search that the reluctant young shovelers become determined to unearth for themselves. Holes is an adaptation of Louis Sachar's hugely successful book and an inspired take it is too; Quirky, funny, slightly dark and great fun.
