The Gruffalo's Child description

Tall Stories presents The Gruffalo's Child, the perfect family adventure for Christmas.

Make your way to the Lyric Theatre, bring the whole family, and fall in love with The Gruffalo's Child, a delightful festive treat adapted from the award-winning children's book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. Lovely songs, lots of laughs, and a string of brilliant characters will fire up your imagination, whatever your age.

The story follows the Gruffalo's Child on her adventures in an enchanting stage version of the picture book loved by millions of kids, including all the book's beloved rhymes plus original music, amazing puppetry and magical staging. Tall Stories has been creating fun for almost three decades with their signature blend of physical storytelling, sing-along songs, thrilling puppetry, fun, and humour. Because they talk directly to the audience, it's an intimate, interactive experience that'll stay with your child for a long time to come.

No Gruffalo should ever set foot in the deep dark wood. But the Gruffalo's Child ignores her dad, takes no notice of his scary stories about the Big Bad Mouse, and sets off to the snowy woods one wild and windy night. Exciting paths to follow and mysterious creatures along the way turn it into a big adventure, but is there such a thing as the Big Bad Mouse after all?

Joe Lindley plays the Gruffalo and other animals. Hannah Miller is the Gruffalo's Child, Sabrina Simohamed is the Narrator and Mouse, and Robin Harris is the Understudy. The fun is directed by Tall Stories' co-founder Olivia Jacobs.

Create treasured family memories with The Gruffalo's Child tickets, a sparkly Christmas special to remember.
