The Gruffalo in North Finchley
5.0 (47)
from £12.00 per session
Arts Depot, 5 Nether Street, North Finchley, London, N12 0GA
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 - celebrating 25 years in 2024!
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!
"Monstrous fun… hugely popular already and deservedly so, this is enthralling entertainment for the youngsters"
Sunday Herald
"The Gruffalo is the perfect intro to theatre for kids"
