Classic family story at theatre

-

Zog and the Flying Doctors are winging their way to Worthing’s Pavilion Theatre this month, bringing Julia Donaldson’s classic family story to the stage.

Spokeswoma­n Esme Lynch said: “Zog, everyone’s favourite super-keen student turned airambulan­ce, still lands with a crash-bang-thump… But he’s learning! Together with Princess Pearl and Sir Gadabout, they tend to a sunburnt mermaid, a unicorn with one too many horns and even a lion with the flu. Join their roar-some team for proper family fun at the Pavilion Theatre on Saturday (April 16) and Sunday (April 17).”

Julia Donaldson said: “Going to the theatre can be a truly magical experience. I know it will be such a thrill to see the world of Zog being brought to life on stage.

“I remember going to see The Nutcracker when I was a child and I found the whole thing completely magical.

“I suppose in a way it’s the same thing that a book gives you in that while you’re reading or watching, you believe in a different reality. And if it’s a good show, parents love to see that their children, even very young ones, can just be transfixed by it.”

1 Tickets from £15.50. For more informatio­n on this or any other events, visit wtam. uk or call the WTM Box Office on 01903 206206.
