Join the Gruffalo’s Child on her brave adventure in Tall Stories’ enchanting adaptation of the much-loved picture book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. One wild and windy night the Gruffalo’s Child ignores her father’s warnings about the Big Bad Mouse and tiptoes out into the night. She follows snowy tracks and encounters all sorts of woodland creatures, including a debonair snake, eccentric owl, and a cunning fox. Showcasing Tall Stories’ distinctive style of physical storytelling, this lively performance combines humor with catchy original music, puppetry, and a touch of magic.
