KidsFest 2014 – The Gruffalo’s Child

Last week, I brought Asher to watch the theatrical performance of The Gruffalo’s Child – one of Asher’s favourite children’s book.

The performance was one of the programs in KidsFest 2014, a series of world-class theatres for kids.

He was looking forward to the performance since I told him about it a week earlier. Just look at how happy and excited he was when we arrived at the Drama Centre where the performance was being played:

Synopsis
By Julia Donaldson & Axel Scheffler

Following hot on the heels of The Gruffalo’s sell out tour and his West End success comes the GRUFFALO’S CHILD – with attitude! But just how brave is she?

The Gruffalo said that no Gruffalo should
Ever set foot in the deep dark wood…

One wild and windy night the Gruffalo’s child ignores her father’s warning and tiptoes out into the snow. After all, the Big Bad Mouse doesn’t really exist… does he?

Tall Stories Theatre Company returns, bringing Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s award-winning sequel to life in this magical, musical adaptation.

Overall, we had fun watching the show, though Asher took a while to get used to the characters in human form.

If you are interested to introduce your child to theatres, why not check out one of the KidsFest 2014 programs via their official website? 🙂
