Following its sell-out success in the West End, The Gruffalo is back on UK tour and coming to The Lowry!
In fact, The Gruffalo is proving so popular The Lowry has scheduled three extra performances.
Since its premiere in 2006, this smash hit production has delighted thousands of youngsters worldwide; touring across England, Scotland and Wales - to as far as Poland, North America and beyond!
Join Mouse on an adventurous journey through the deep dark wood in this magical, musical adaptation of the award winning picture book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, which was named The Nation's Favourite Children's Book recently by the BBC and has been described in The Observer as 'A modern classic'.
Mouse can scare hungry animals away with tall stories of the terrifying Gruffalo, but what happens when he comes face to face with the very creature he imagined? Meet a wheeler-dealer Fox, an eccentric old Owl, a maraca-shaking, party-mad Snake… and, of course, The Gruffalo!
Songs, laughs and scary fun for children aged 3 to 300!
‘Monstrous fun!’ Daily Mail
