The Enormous Crocodile
Lyric Hammersmith
Roald Dahl's most delightfully grotesque crocodile gets the musical treatment at the Lyric in Hammersmith. An adaptation that keeps the story's dark humour: a jungle predator with increasingly ridiculous appetites, outmatched by cleverer, braver creatures who stop his schemes.
If your kids already know Dahl, they'll want to see this. If not, it's a good way in. Puppetry, original music, and imaginative set and costume design carry the action, so there's plenty to hold attention even if focus drifts. The tone mixes silly with slightly unsettling, which works for most family audiences.
