[...] the beloved classic The Gruffalo (we mentioned the trailer when it first screened on TV on our blog here) as well as Rob Scotton’s Splat the Cat and Mo Willem’s Naked Mole Rat Gets [...]
I am so looking forward to this. We went to see the stage show yesterday and the girls enjoyed it enormously. It was funny, clever – a bit cheeky for the grown ups and not too long for the small ones. It was not scary at all – which was a good thing. Cissy told me she wasn’t scared because the “Gruffalo wasn’t real” (Everyone knows there’s no such thing as a Gruffalo!) For those of us in Melbourne I believe it is having another season next holidays. Go, it was fun!
we just read this book for the first time! wondering if it will be on tv in the states at all. thanks for sharing. xoxo
The Gruffalo came to the Theatre Royal in Hobart this month and I went on a ‘date’ with my 2 and a half year old. He sat spellbound for the entire show and wanted to eat roasted fox for the rest of the day. Try and source that for dinner!
We saw it on the stage last week and tv this morning. Both were fantastic productions and great examples of really effective adaptations of a much loved book to the stage and small screen.
Do a google for bbc iplayer, you might be able to see it there. It was available for a while after it was first shown in the UK on Christmas day… what a treat! It’s brilliant!
