Tiddler and Other Terrific Tales, Leicester Square Theatre

Based on four of the bestselling books by children's author Julia Donaldson and illustrator Axel Scheffler (creators of The Gruffalo), this charming children's tale – stretching from the sea to the farm to the jungle – will be seen on the Richmond Theatre stage this February half-term.

Using live music, puppets and a collection of characters from Donaldson's works, including Tiddler, Monkey Puzzle, The Smartest Giant in Town, and A Squash and a Squeeze, children over three and their families are invited to dance, tap and laugh along with this underwater adventure.

Directed by Sally Cookson, an associate at the Bristol Old Vic, whose works have included Peter Pan and a rather more adult Jane Eyre, families will find out whether Monkey will find his mother, and if Tiddler is telling the truth.

Suitable for ages 3+
