The world premiere of a brand new family musical adventure, Where Is Peter Rabbit?, opens at the Old Laundry Theatre, Bowness-On-Windermere on June 27. And Alan Ayckbourn is writing the lyrics.
Theatre set designer Roger Glossop and his producer wife Charlotte Scott, owners of The World Of Beatrix Potter attraction, approached Warne publishers and asked if Jemima Puddle-Duck could have a conversation with Beatrix Potter, which is how Where Is Peter Rabbit? came to life.
Ayckbourn, as patron, is no stranger to the Old Laundry Theatre which has been re-staging his Scarborough plays since 1992.
