‘We are all different, but there is
something kind of fantastic about that, isn’t there?!’
This play, adapted for the stage by Sam
Holcroft was charming, witty, silly and brilliant, I’m sure Roald Dahl himself
would love it. Great fun for all the family with just the right amount of
naughtiness, peril, guts and gore that kids LOVE.
The story follows Mr Fox and his friends as
they find ingenious ways to outsmart the horrible, stinky farmers trying to catch
them. It explores the theme of greed versus sharing and how being kind and
working together will ultimately save the day. With a few drops of adult humour
thrown in, it really was a wonderfully funny play to watch with some catchy
songs and a few relatable modern anecdotes.
The stage set was superb, really
interactive with lots going on and the costumes were perfect, quite funny and
highlighted the characters personalities. Brilliant performance from the whole
cast acting, singing and dancing and to entertain kids and big kids alike, they
played their characters skillfully well.

Keynes Theatre this week to catch them before they dig their way out! The show
