The Gruffalo

The Gruffalo

The hit musical adaptation of the award winning picture book.

Touring nationally and internationally since 2001, this magical musical adaptation of the best-selling picture book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, The Gruffalo has been performed over 4000 times to over a million people the world over! Read more …

The award-winning book was recently voted the nation’s number one bedtime story by BBC Radio 2 listeners and even hit the small screens on Christmas Day in a star-studded TV adaptation on BBC1!

Join Mouse on an adventurous journey through the deep dark wood… meet a wheeler-dealer Fox, an eccentric old Owl, a maraca-shaking, party-mad Snake! Mouse can scare these 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…?

The Gruffalo is an ideal introduction to theatre for pre and primary school children and their families; with plenty of songs, laughs and fun for children aged 3 to 300!


The critical consensus

The ensemble employs a great deal of physicality, visual humour and "look behind you" tomfoolery to engage the audience.
