Room On The Broom in London

Audiences aged 3 and upwards can jump on board the broom this Winter with a delightful musical adaptation of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler's Room on the Broom. Brought to the stage by acclaimed theatre company Tall Stories, the production is heading to the West End for a limited season as part of a major UK tour.

Room on the Broom - The Story

Room on the Broom tells the charming story of a kind-hearted witch who offers rides on her broomstick to a group of animals she meets along her journey. Despite her broomstick becoming increasingly crowded, the witch and her newfound friends work together to overcome a fearsome dragon. The story is brought to the stage packed with enchanting puppetry, sing-along songs and a hilarious fun, making it the perfect winter family treat.

About Room on the Broom

The book, written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Scheffler, was first published in 2001. The story followed their previous book, The Gruffalo, which was hugely successful. Room on the Broom is very popular with families and earned six children's book awards. Adapted into a short animated film in 2012, it was then adapted for the stage by Tall Stories in 2008 where it has since been nominated for a Olivier Award.

Fun

I took my three-year-old grandson and he sat there mesmerised. He lost interest when the bird and the frog came out but when the dragon appeared, he literally jumped out of his skin and hit under the chair. All in all a wonderful play and I would definitely recommend it. Incidentally, I thought that maybe a couple more interactive well thought songs with the little ones would’ve been nice.

Room On a Broom Review

Thought it was a bit amateurish in parts and the campers were a bit silly in what they were doing Very noisy children who were far too young to take to a theatre

Totally disappointing

We were so looking forward to this show as my two children love the story. The play was really poor, the actors corpsed on stage and really messed up . The music was rubbish, the scenery un imaginative. The whole thing was very amateurish and totally not worth the money.

Room on the broom

Good show for families including children as young as 3. The script plays massively with the sub text but did include all the original text. The use of puppets and physical ensemble work were both strong.

Entertaining, well acted and not too long

Took 2 of my children aged 3 and 6 to see the show and they both loved it, especially being fans of the book. The show is about an hour long, which is just right for kids I feel. The cast are very interactive, playing hide and seek in the audience before the show started. Very personable people and the use of puppets for some of the animals was excellent. Despite misgivings beforehand I found myself focussing on the puppets and not the people operating them. Entertaining and full of laughs for children and adults, even I thoroughly enjoyed this outing. Very well done and high praises for a wonderful afternoon out for the children, bringing the story to life with songs, music and great acting!
