Zog – Live on Stage – UK Tour
Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s classic, feel-good story is brought to roaring, soaring life in this delightful musical for children.
Zog is the keenest dragon in Madam Dragon’s school. He’s also the most accident-prone, flying into trees, and even setting his own wing alight. Thankfully, a kind girl comes along to patch up his scratches and scrapes – but can she help him with his biggest challenge yet, so that he can finally win a golden star?
From the producers of Stick Man and Zog and the Flying Doctors, this charming smash-hit show features joyful songs by Joe Stilgoe with beautiful puppets by Little Angel, and is a treat for children and adults alike.
Running Time: Approximately one hour.
Age suitability: Most suitable for 3+ but all ages welcome.
