What made The Gruffalo performance unforgettable was the combination of funny acting, colourful costumes, music and audience participation. The actors brought the Mouse, Fox, Owl, Snake and Gruffalo to life in a lively and entertaining way. I especially enjoyed how the audience could join in and react to what was happening on stage. The moment when the Gruffalo appeared was exciting and surprising, which made the performance feel magical and memorable.

The actors were incredible. It was really fun and interactive for the kids. The characters were so well played...the man who played the snake, owl and fox, in particular had such a wonderful presence on stage. A thoroughly enjoyable show!

From the moment we were welcomed to the theatre, the staff were friendly and smiley. This feels so rare nowadays and I commented to my husband how friendly everyone seemed. There were boosters for children ready at the sides- it wasn't a faff and this just made it feel calm and organised. The show itself was spectacular. The perfect length for little ones (mine was 4). I thought the cast were exceptional. I loved how they personified the book characters with inside jokes for adults and children. It had the right amount of interaction- it didn't feel like a panto but kept the children entertained just when they may have started to get restless. My whole family loved this show and we will definitely look out for more by the company in the future- thank you!

Just great with two nietas i E. Granddaughters who knew the story in advance. We (abuela y abuelo) loved it and loved to see dos nietas to enjoy the performance as well - or even more. The mouse won character voting 3 - 1 , fox being the second. Great! Thanks to You!

The actors were perfectly cast for this show. The Gruffalo costuming was not scary for a 4 year old. I had been concerned about that before we attended. We loved the ability for the children in the audience to be interactive, which helped to keep their attention. My granddaughter is quite shy & she was actually comfortable joining in some with the interaction. And most of all, she has been talking nonstop about it, and "when can we go back"! Thank you for a great experience!

The Story

The show follows a brave little mouse on a perilous quest for hazelnuts in the deep, dark wood. As he navigates the dangers of the forest, he encounters a series of hungry predators – a sly fox, a wise old owl, and a sneaky snake. With each encounter, the quick-thinking mouse devises a cunning plan to escape their clutches. His secret weapon? A fabricated monster called the Gruffalo, complete with terrifying tusks and a fearsome appetite. But will this imaginary creature be enough to save the day?

It could have been a lot better. Just needed better costumes and an added wow factor. It was underwhelming and the children were disappointed. They had forgotten it within a day, yet they still talk about The tiger who came to tea from seeing it almost a year ago. They are 6 and 4.
