Synopsis
This wonderfully colourful production takes us into Thumbelina’s small and perilous world. An unpleasant family of toads and a water rat named Walter are all determined to capture her. Plus, a muddled old mole thinks our tiny heroine would make a fine wife for himself in his dismal, underground dwelling. If only Thumbelina could find the two princesses, the children who promised to take her to the Land of the Little People!
Filled with singing, dancing, villains and heroes, this children’s musical is sure to entertain the whole family!
