Michael Rosen and Helen Oxenbury's best-selling children's picture book We're Going on a Bear Hunt, adapted by Sally Cookson with music by Benji Bower, will spend Christmas at The Lowry.
Join the intrepid family of adventurers and their musical dog as they wade through the swishy swashy grass, the splishy splashy river, the thick oozy squelchy mud and the swirling, whirling snowstorm, in search of a bear. Expect plenty of interaction and a few surprises along the way.
Michael Rosen said, "this production of We're Going on a Bear Hunt takes everyone on the journey—not under, not over, oh no—through it!—in a funny, exuberant and loving way. It's a show full of laughter, music, silliness and thrills that I promise you will excite and delight all young children. This is a must-go show.”
The cast features Neha Eapen as Girl, Benedict Hastings as Boy, Tim Hibberd as Dad and Ben Hills as Dog / Musician.
It runs at The Lowry from 7 December 2023 to 7 January 2024.
