SYNOPSIS
This is a faithful adaptation of Roald
Dahl’s classic story in which Boy and his Grandmother defeat the Grand
High Witch and her followers, who are holding a Conference in an
English seaside hotel. During the struggle, Boy gets turned into a
mouse. The Witches are nothing like the ones who wear pointed hats and
fly on broomsticks – they look very much like ordinary women, which
helps their deception. The play offers many opportunities for
illusions and inventive puppetry. Humour is provided by the vulgar
Jenkins family, whose son, Bruno, also becomes a mouse.
