Directed by Caroline Leslie, this adaptation of the award-winning radio comedy has already seen success at the Watermill Theatre last year. The production follows Pip's extraordinary exploits with sisters Pippa and Poppy, and their best friend Harry Biscuit.
Together, the group must escape from the dastardly Mr Gently Benevolent, defeat the hideous Hardthrasher siblings, and deflect disaster at every turn! Expect barbarous boarding schools, contemptible conspiracies, roaring romances, devilish disguises, and definitely, probably, hopefully, a happy ending!
Don't miss this hysterical comedy at the Criterion - tickets are on sale now!
We can feel the love for the new cast of DISNEY'S THE LION KING!
