Gruffalo creator Dame Julia Donaldson has said she hopes the stage show adaptation of her hit book helps to introduce both children and adults to live theatre.
The children’s book about a clever mouse who outwits a fearsome monster with purple prickles all over his back was first published in 1999, and the theatre production celebrates its 25th anniversary this year with a run at the Lyric Theatre in London’s West End as part of a UK tour.
