Which is your nearest theatre? Sorry I'm not very good at finding places.

I;m in the Midlands (south), Cheltenham is the best date for us.

Mum2girls · 26/04/2005 11:44

no probs sparkler! Just had a look at the run list - all a tad too far away (i.e. over an hours drive). Ah well, maybe they'll do another tour.

NomDePlume · 26/04/2005 11:51

Cheltenham is only 25 mins from me, mum2girls. I guess you must be further north then ?

Clayhead · 26/04/2005 11:53

I'm going next month, hope it's good!!

NomDePlume · 26/04/2005 11:56

We've been. It was fantastic. DD loved it. She was clapping and joining in with the audience participation of shouting and reciting the storylines. Aw and she's only three!!
She looked a little uncertain when the Gruffalo came out but soon had a smile back on her face again shortly after.

Fab, we've booked tickets for 20th May at Cheltenham as a result of this thread ! Can't wait to see it, 2.9 year old DD will love it !

My 2 boys loved it (4 and 2+3/4yrs at the time) even dd who was about 8weeks old sat glued to the performance. I loved the snake, he really made me giggle!!

She adores both books so I can't see it not being a hit
