Peppa Pig trots into the West End for Christmas
Preview by Lizzie Guilfoyle
FOLLOWING a successful UK tour, Peppa Pig and her friends are back in the West End this Christmas in their latest live show Peppa Pig’s Adventure.
Featuring a new story, loads of songs and heaps of fun, it runs at the Theatre Royal Haymarket from December 8, 2018 to January 6, 2019 (daytime slot).
Join Peppa as she gets ready to go on an exciting camping trip to the woods with George and her school friends, including Pedro Pony, Suzy Sheep and Gerald Giraffe. With lunch-boxes packed and Daddy Pig driving the bus, Peppa and her friends are excited about their outdoor adventure, full of games, laughter and live music!
The happy campers soon settle down to sleep and listen to the gentle pitter patter of rain. Safe and warm inside their tents the excited group can look forward to morning time, when there will be lots of muddy puddles to play in!
Richard Lewis again directs the live stage adaptation of eOne’s popular animated TV series which he has also adapted for the theatre. He also adapted and directed the four previous Peppa Pig live stage shows – Peppa Pig’s Party, Peppa Pig’s Treasure Hunt, Peppa Pig’s Big Splash and Peppa Pig’s Surprise.
This interactive show features music from BAFTA award-winning composer Mani Svavarsson.
Produced by leading children’s theatre team Fiery Light, in partnership with licensor Entertainment One (eOne), Peppa Pig’s Adventure marks the ninth consecutive year of Peppa Pig live theatre tours since 2009 and the fifth Peppa Pig stage production in total.
