The Gruffalo's Child

Adapted from the award-winning picture book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, published by Macmillan Children’s Books, The Gruffalo’s Child returns to the stage in a magical musical production.

Following sell-out Australian tours, this new West End production brings the beloved sequel to life, inviting family audiences to join the Gruffalo’s Child on an adventurous journey through the deep, dark wood.

On a wild and windy night, the Gruffalo’s Child ignores her father’s warnings about the Big Bad Mouse and sets off into the forest—after all, the Big Bad Mouse doesn’t really exist… or does he?

From the acclaimed team behind The Gruffalo, Room on the Broom, and The 13-, 26-, 52-, 78- & 91-Storey Treehouses, this enchanting stage adaptation combines physical theatre, music, and puppetry. Packed with songs, laughter, and just the right amount of spooky fun, it is perfect for children aged 3 and up and their families.

Running time: 55 minutes (no interval)
