Quantum Theatre are back at Ventnor Fringe Festival this summer with their enchanting new adaptation of the family classic, The Wind in the Willows.
“Believe me, my young friend, there is nothing – absolutely nothing – half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats…”
Spring is in the air and Mole has found a wonderful new world. There’s boating with Ratty, a feast with Badger and high jinx on the open road with that reckless ruffian, Mr Toad.
What more could such firm friends wish for? But after Toad’s latest escapade lands him in jail, can the friends join together and beat the wretched weasels who’ve taken over Toad Hall?
Brought dazzlingly to life
Kenneth Grahame’s charming tale of great friendships and adventures along the riverbank is brought dazzlingly to life by family favourites, Quantum Theatre, in a delightful new adaptation, packed full of fabulous songs and original music by Gideon Escott, in a show that’s perfect for everyone, from three to ninety three.
So why not join Mole, Ratty, Badger and Toad on their mad-cap adventures at Ventnor Botanic Gardens for an afternoon of fun, frolics and derring-do.
