“We’ve been excited by Theo & Joss’s unique vision for Stuffed from the moment we read it and were immediately compelled by its originality and boldness. We jumped at the chance to develop the film with them and are so proud to now support it through to production. Funny, poignant, heartwarming, and endlessly surprising, Stuffed is an accomplished and playful take on what an original independent musical can be. Theo and his producers Sam, Dimitra, Myles and Hayley have built a truly impressive crew of collaborators to create the world of Stuffed, and we’re thrilled to see Jodie and Harry bring these incredible characters to life.”
