The celebrated production of C.S. Lewis’ The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, which was loved by audiences and critics alike during its recent West End run, will embark on a major new tour of the UK & Ireland, opening at Leeds Playhouse this Autumn.

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is directed by Michael Fentiman based on the original production by Sally Cookson, with set and costume design by Tom Paris, composition by Barnaby Race and Benji Bower, choreography by Shannelle ‘Tali’ Fergus, lighting by Jack Knowles, sound by Tom Marshall, puppetry direction by Toby Olié, puppetry design by Max Humphries, aerial direction by Gwen Hales, illusions by Chris Fisher, and casting by Will Burton CDG. Casting will be announced in due course.

Director Michael Fentiman said: “I’m delighted to be taking our beautiful production of The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe on a major tour of the UK and Ireland in 2025. The production celebrates the magic of live theatre and is led by a multi-talented cast of actors, singers, musicians, dancers and puppeteers; it is a celebration of the possibilities of the collective imagination and the boundless wonders of individual skill.”

The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe will play in Leeds through Christmas 2024, and in 2025 is scheduled to visit Leicester, Cardiff, Liverpool, Newcastle, Brighton, Dartford, Woking, Torquay, High Wycombe, Southend-on-Sea, York, Belfast, Dublin, Edinburgh, Birmingham, Stoke-on-Trent, Glasgow, Aberdeen, Inverness, Norwich, Canterbury, Milton Keynes, Blackpool, Llandudno, Eastbourne, Aylesbury and Sunderland.
