The Tiger Who Came To Tea

Showing at: Bloomsbury Theatre

Box Office: 020 7388 8822

Age: Children

Genre: Musical

The doorbell rings just as Sophie and her mummy are sitting down to tea. Who could it possibly be? What they certainly don’t expect to see at the door is a big, stripy tiger!

For the first time ever, this much loved tale of a tiger creating tea time mayhem is brought vividly to life on stage in a show packed with oodles of magic, sing-along songs and clumsy chaos.

Playwright David Wood OBE is undisputedly the country’s leading writer and director of plays and musicals for children. His many successes include Fantastic Mr Fox, The Gingerbread Man, The BFG, The Witches, Meg And Mog, Spot and Babe The Sheep Pig.

Suitable for theatregoers aged three and older.
