Leeds Playhouse's hit production of The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe will return home as the theatre's festive show next Christmas.
The show will return home following a UK tour and six-month run in the West End, to play in the Playhouse's Quarry theatre from November 18, 2024-January 25, 2025. Tickets go on sale a year early, from November 29.
Based on Lewis’ classic book about a group of children who find their way through a wardrobe into a magical kingdom, the show is directed by Michael Fentiman, based on an original production by Sally Cookson that was created at the Playhouse.
Join Lucy, Edmund, Susan and Peter as they wave goodbye to wartime Britain and say hello to Mr Tumnus, the talking Faun; Aslan, the stately Lion and the coldest, cruellest White Witch!
Director Michael Fentiman said: “It’s an honour to be bringing our production of The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe back to Leeds Playhouse. Having trained in West Yorkshire (Bretton Hall), Leeds Playhouse was my local theatre for many years.”
Step through the wardrobe into the kingdom of Narnia for the most mystical of adventures in a faraway land. Join Lucy, Edmund, Susan and Peter as they wave goodbye to wartime Britain and say hello to Mr Tumnus, the talking Faun; Aslan, the unforgettable Lion and the coldest, cruellest White Witch!
Relaxed and Dementia Friendly performances will be available and a selection of digital resources will be available free to all schools who book to see the production.
