The Incredible Book Eating Boy comes to Singapore

Henry loves books. But Henry doesn’t like to read books, he likes to eat them. Big books, picture books, reference books… if it has pages, Henry chews them up and swallows (but red ones are his favourite). And the more he eats, the smarter he gets. He’s on his way to being the smartest boy in the world! But one day he feels sick to his stomach. And the information is so jumbled up inside, he can’t digest it! Can Henry find a way to enjoy books without using his teeth?

A cast of three from Australia uses song, movement and puppetry to bring Oliver Jeffers’ quirky, beautiful and much loved The Incredible Book Eating Boy to life for children aged three to eight. ABA Productions is performing at the SOTA Drama Theatre until this Sunday only, so grab your seats quick!
