work in progress one-hour showing co-directed by Aaron Patterson, Murphy worked upon adapting a further version of Peake's novella Boy in Darkness into a full stage performance, which ran from 11 March to 4 April 2015. The piece adapted and performed by Gareth Murphy, in which he played the Boy, goat, hyena and lamb, as well as a central storytelling character, was at this stage in its process directed by John Walton. It was well received, achieving four stars and being described as "a physical theatre gem" by The Stage, while A Younger Theatre said "Physical eloquence and bold storytelling do justice to Peake's fantasy realm." The production was set to tour the UK in 2016. Children in Need Celebrity Choir In 2014, BBC Children in Need approached the Blue Elephant, offering places for eleven young people from the theatre to join the celebrity choir formed by Gareth Malone to record a cover of Avicii's "Wake Me Up".

The single achieved a combined chart sales tally of over 120,000 in the seven days following, as well as being the most physically purchased single that week.
