The Gruffalo live in Manila Jan. 27-31

MANILA, Philippines – Let The Gruffalo introduce your little ones to the magic and wonder of world-class theater on Jan. 27 to 31 at the RCBC Theater.

Join Mouse on an adventurous journey in Tall Stories’ magical, musical adaptation of the award-winning picture book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler.

Mouse sets off on a daring adventure through the deep dark wood in search of hazelnuts, meeting the cunning Fox, the eccentric old Owl and the party mad Snake on the way. Will the story of the fabled Gruffalo save Mouse from ending up as dinner for these wily woodland creatures? Armed with only a nut map and a little courage, Mouse must outwit them all, and after all, there’s no such thing as a Gruffalo — is there?

Songs, laughs and scary fun for children aged three and up and their adults, in a show that’s toured around Britain and the world. Let your imagination run wild.

The Gruffalo Live has grown into one of the biggest and most anticipated live shows in Hong Kong and Singapore, and Manila can finally welcome the production this year. The Gruffalo will be performed by a professional theater company from the United Kingdom.

“In its four years, The Gruffalo Live has grown into a major family entertainment event in both Hong Kong and Singapore,” says Matthew Gregory, executive producer of Hong Kong-based ABA Productions. “This show will provide a fun and educational experience that the whole family can enjoy. I truly hope that this will give children an opportunity to experience the magic of live theater and expand their knowledge of the art.”   

The Gruffalo is brought to Manila by Concertus Manila, in partnership with ABA Productions and Lunchbox Theatrical Productions, and with special thanks to Nickelodeon. Book your tickets at TicketWorld. Call 891-9999 or visit www.ticketworld.com.ph.
