The Three Little Pigs
Once upon a time, in a muddy field by the farm, there lived THREE LITTLE PIGS.
Following the huge success of ‘The Three Billy Goats Gruff’, Lost The Plot Theatrical hit the road with another family classic.
Join Poppy and Pat as they excitedly leave the family sty in search of new adventures! Will they make a pig’s ear out of it, or will they raise the roof? It’ll take brains, bravery and curly-tails to build bridges and forge friendships with each other and those they meet along the way.
Get those trotters tapping and those snouts a-squealin’ with new catchy songs, dancing and plenty of audience participation for piglets of all ages.
There’s snout left to do but book your tickets for this OINK-TASTIC musical!
Date: Saturday 30 May
Time: 11:30am
