“There’s a monster in the garden and it’s going to eat me.”
What happens when nobody listens?
David McKee’s wickedly funny story roars on to the stage in Roustabout Theatre’s fantastical and colourful adaptation of this classic and much-loved picture book.
Through physical comedy, a live soundtrack performed on instruments and household objects, and an enormous purple monster, this show explores big themes of attention, imagination, and being heard, offering lots to talk about for both children and adults.
With integrated Makaton, this accessible production is suitable for everyone aged 3+.
