Greenwich Theatre presents a family-fun summer rep season with PINOCCHIO and THE WOLVES OF WILLOUGHBY CHASE
It has been announced that Greenwich Theatre will showcase two family friendly shows in rep this summer, with both shows running from 5 August - 5 September 2021.
The season includes the rescheduled adaptation of Joan Aiken’s The Wolves of Willoughby Chase and a brand-new retelling of Pinocchio, with both productions being directed by the venue’s Artistic Director, James Haddrell.
A fantastic ensemble cast will feature across both productions, including favourite pantomime villain Anthony Spargo (Horrible Histories – Barmy Britain Part One and Two) alongside Alice DeWarrenne, David Haller, Cassandra Hercules, Serin Ibrahim, Adam Karim and Reice Wea.
Haddrell said: “I am delighted to be working with writers Tony Clark and Russ Tunney to launch this ambitious new venture for Greenwich Theatre, a summer repertory which this year features Tunney’s adaptation of The Wolves of Willoughby Chase and Clark’s version of Pinocchio. Family theatre has always been incredibly important to us at Greenwich Theatre. From the launch of the Greenwich Children’s Theatre Festival in 2008 to the year-on-year growth of our Offie award-winning pantomime, audiences have come to expect exciting, innovative family shows in Greenwich every season, so this new signature moment in the year is set to become a must-see moment in the capitals cultural calendar.”
Tickets for both shows are available here.
