The Enormous Crocodile description
The Enormous Crocodile is hungry, and he'd LOVE a tasty little child for tea! If your children adore Roald Dahl's mischievous jungle adventure, you're in luck. It's on stage in London for 2026 following a couple of smash hit UK runs, and the massive croc is just as greedy and naughty as ever. He's still on the rampage, hunting for delicious little fingers and fat little knees to bite, and the other creatures of the jungle will need to be very brave indeed to stop him. Can they foil his wicked plans and stop his tricks?
Catchy songs by the brilliant musician Ahmed Abdullahi Gallab (Sinkane), a funny book and lyrics by Suhayla El-Bushra (The Ramayana, Hollyoaks) and extra music and lyrics from Tom Brady (Romeo and Juliet and Lord of the Rings) make it extra-special, as does the awe-inspiring puppetry by Toby Olié (Life of Pi, Pinocchio) and Daisy Beattie (Ocean at the End of the Lane). Fly Davis's imaginative set and costume design (Caroline, or Change, Standing at the Sky's Edge) complete the picture, a spectacle your child will remember with delight for years to come. If you're searching for a gorgeous, colourful, family-friendly theatre treat, this is it.
