E. Nesbit’s classic novel The Railway Children is brought thrillingly to life in a stunning new stage production. Read more …
This best-loved tale, made famous by the iconic 1970 movie starring Jenny Agutter and Bernard Cribbins, delivers a compelling coming of age story and a fascinating insight into Edwardian rural life.
Complete with beautiful period costumes and ingenious designs, this new production promises an uplifting theatrical experience for all ages, packed with intrigue, adventure, joy and jubilation.
The result is utterly charming and allows the beautiful storytelling to take centre stage. There are no gimmicks, just excellent acting and a wonderful story.
It looks beautiful and it remains as heart-warming as it has always been, touchingly sentimental, it harks back to a gentler era and is a welcome escape from the harsh realities of the world outside the theatre doors.
Heartfelt and enjoyable.
Theatre Royal, Glasgow from Tuesday July 4, 2017, until Sunday July 9, 2017. More info: www.theambassadors.com/theatreroyalglasgow/
