Character: The Things

The Things don’t have arms, legs or a gender. Physically, they are nigh invulnerable and emotionally vulnerable, sensitive and kind. Sometimes they eat spoons!


  • Narrator: What's your gender? Things: We don't have one. Narrator: Then what are you? Things look shocked and appalled by the question. They look a little cranky when they say: We're us! The Things smile. Thing 2: Do we have to explain why the sky is blue next? Thing 1: Oh dear, that's a tricky one!
