Windmill Theatre brings back an old favourite based on the picture book by Phil Cummings and Nina Rycroft

Director: Rosemary Myers

Designer: Jonathon Oxlade

Composer: Quincy Grant

Cast: David Heinrich, Ezra Juanta, Alirio Zavarc

Following a hugely successful season in 2008, we bring back a favourite for our newest and littlest theatre lovers.

Shhh listen, what's that sound? A mouse creates a single ting with a bowl and spoon triggering a makeshift band. An explosion of rhythm and song springs to life as an ensemble of animals move out of the kitchen and on to the glittering stage, complete with magic cupboard, hatching baby chickens and a gigantic washing machine.

Specially crafted to provide our toddlers and pre-schoolers with intimate theatrical experiences, this musical humbug goes off with a ting-tong clickety bang!
