See this adaptation of the famous Wind in the Willows from The Steam Industry Free Theatre, performed at the Scoop outdoor theatre on the Southbank.
Toad wants to be famous. The fastest, coolest, bravest, brightest, most celebrated toad on the planet... the only trouble is celebrated for what? Because poor Toady's yet to find anything he's good at.
But that won't stop him dragging his friends Mole, Rat and Badger into a series of scrapes in the summer sunshine designed to unearth his (very) hidden talents and get London singing his praises. However, when his ancestral home, Toad Hall (played in this production by Mayor Boris Johnson's City Hall) is threatened with an invasion of stoats, weasels and newts our man must knuckle down and employ every spiffing prank, wicked wheeze and jolly jape he knows to repel the jealous wild-wooders and wily amphibians at the gate.
Suitable for all ages. Running time 1hr approx.
Signed performance – Thursday 26 August, 6pm
