The Enormous Crocodile
Lyric Hammersmith
Roald Dahl's scheming jungle creature gets the musical theatre treatment at the Lyric. It's a story about a crocodile with big plans and bigger appetites, and the other animals who have to work together to stop him. The kind of adventure that plays well with younger audiences without being precious about it.
The production features puppets and music from Ahmed Abdullahi Gallab, with book and lyrics by Suhayla El-Bushra, directed by Emily Lim. That's a creative team built for making this kind of thing work, turning Dahl's dark comedy into something theatrical that actually lands on stage.
If your kids are into adventure stories with some bite to them, or if you want to catch a solidly crafted children's theatre piece, this is a strong option at one of London's best-placed theatres.
