The Gruffalo’s Child

Ipswich Civic Centre presents a CDP with Tall Stories production

SHOWS POSTPONED – NEW DATE THURSDAY 22 OCTOBER

Please note: as a result of COVID-19 we wish to advises that the production of The Gruffalo’s Child at Ipswich Civic Centre originally scheduled for Wednesday 27May has been postponed.  This show will now be held on Thursday 22 October 2020.  Current tickets will be automatically transferred to the new date.

The Gruffalo said that no gruffalo should ever set foot in the deep dark wood…

One wild and windy night the Gruffalo’s Child ignores her father’s warnings about the Big Bad Mouse and tiptoes out into the deep dark wood. After all, the Big Bad Mouse doesn’t really exist… does he?

A trio of bright new performers fill the forest with colourful characters and foot-tapping, sing-along songs. Audiences will be dazzled with brand new costumes when the return season entices fans with the magic of the deep dark wood.

The Australian production of The Gruffalo’s Child has attracted critical acclaim, with the Sydney Morning Herald describing it as “winningly played”, and the Courier Mail saying it “can’t fail to please”.

The team behind The Gruffalo, Room on the Broom and The 13-, 26-, 52-, 78- and 91-Storey Treehouses return with The Gruffalo’s Child, bringing together physical theatre, music and puppetry to deliver songs, laughs and scary fun for children aged 3 and up, and their adults. Don’t miss it!
