Hilarious and totally engaging for young children from the very beginning... the best children's theatre I have ever seen.
- Chris Haughton, author of 'Oh No, George!'

George sees something in the kitchen. It’s cake! I said I’d be good, George thinks, but I LOVE cake. What will George do? Oh No, George! is the delightfully playful tale of a dog who wants to be good but just can’t resist temptation. Adapted from the award-winning picture book by Chris Haughton, this brand new show for everyone aged 3+ uses acrobatics, slapstick comedy and live music to bring George’s chaotic and joyful escapades to life. |
