The Wind In The Willows
by Alan Bennett
adapted from the book by Kenneth Grahame.
We are excited to announce that our Autumn production will be this ingenious adaptation of the classic children's novel.
Join Mole, Ratty and Badger as they try to keep their friend the inimitable Mr Toad out of trouble, braving the thrills and dangers of the Riverbank, the Wild Wood and the Wide World in the classic and much-loved adventure.
This fresh and critically-acclaimed version by Alan Bennett, first performed in 1990 at the National Theatre, is faithful to the original but adds his distinctive mischievous wit, making the story enjoyable for a contemporary audience of both children and adults.

"Alan Bennett's stage adaptation of The Wind in the Willows has become a classic in its own right. If Kenneth Grahame's riverside characters were affectionate portraits of his friends, the enduring appeal of the stage version is that they seem to provide a composite of Bennett. There is Mole, the benign, quiet provincial peering at life through thick spectacles. Then Ratty, the urbane, Oxbridge-educated vole of letters, Badger, a gruff member of the establishment who doesn't like to be disturbed, and Toad, who might be seen as Bennett's wicked side."
