Sophie and her mummy are just sitting down for tea when they hear a ring on the doorbell. Who could it possibly be? What the pair certainly don’t expect to see standing in their doorway is a massive, stripy tiger!
Theatre goers of all ages are invited to join the tea guzzling tiger in this delightful family show: featuring oodles of magic, sing along songs and plenty of clumsy chaos. You won’t want to miss this stunning stage adaptation of the classic tale of a topsy-turvy teatime – expect to be surprised!
Originally published in 1968, The Tiger Who Came to Tea was both written and illustrated by Judith Kerr, who invented the story after visiting the zoo with her young daughter. The book was adapted to an award-winning theatre show in 2008 by children’s literature icon, David Wood.
Today (Friday 28 July) sees matinee performances at 1.30 PM and 4.30 PM, Saturday 29 will see performances at 11 AM, 2 PM and 4.30 PM and there will be Sunday 30 performances at 11 AM and 2 PM.
