A musical adaptation of the bestselling book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler
George wishes he wasn’t the scruffiest giant in town. So when he sees a new shop selling giant-sized clothes, he decides it’s time for a new look: smart trousers, smart shirt, stripy tie, shiny shoes. Now he’s the smartest giant in town ... until he bumps into some animals who desperately need his help – and his clothes!
This heart-warming tale about friendship and helping those in need is brought to life in a musical, puppet-filled adventure. Little Angel Theatre’s previous bestselling adaptations of Julia Donaldson’s picture books include The Singing Mermaid and The Everywhere Bear.
