Tall Stories presents The Gruffalo, Based on the picture book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, at The Mill Arts Centre in Banbury.
A mouse took a stroll through the deep dark wood…
Join Mouse on a daring adventure through the deep, dark wood in Tall Stories’ magical, musical adaptation of the classic picture book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler.
Searching for hazelnuts, Mouse meets the cunning Fox, the eccentric old Owl and the high-spirited Snake.
Will the story of the terrifying Gruffalo save Mouse from ending up as dinner for these hungry woodland creatures? After all, there’s no such thing as a Gruffalo – is there?
Songs, laughs, and monstrous fun for children aged 3 and up, and their grown-ups, in the much-loved show that’s toured Britain and the world.
Performed by a company of deaf and hearing actors using spoken English, visual storytelling and BSL. All performances will be relaxed.

★★★★ ‘A fine piece of children’s theatre.’ —Sunday Times
★★★★ ‘This zesty show is just the ticket!’ —Daily Express
