Immersion Theatre Announces Full Cast for UK Open-Air Tour of WIND IN THE WILLOWS
Immersion Theatre are thrilled to announce full casting for their brand new, high energy, Open-Air adaptation of The Wind in the Willows.
Ashley Cavender will take the role of the terrifically tartaned Mr. Toad, having previously played Mason in Journey's End, the title role in Robin Hood and Lion in The Wizard of Oz, a role he will be reprising once again this Christmas, all for Immersion Theatre. David Sandham plays Badger, having played Daddy Pig/Danny Dog in Peppa Pig's Big Splash in the West End and on tour, Wise Old Elf/King Thistle in a national tour of Ben & Holly's Little Kingdom Live, as well as having appeared in tours of The Tales of Peter Rabbit & Benjamin Bunny, Alice Through The Looking Glass, and The Snow Queen.
Robert Oliver, Gregor Duncan, and RoBert Woodward complete the cast in the roles of Rat, Chief Weasel, and Mole respectively.
Pack your picnics and join Ratty, Mole, Badger, and the fantastically irrepressible Toad as they embark on the adventure of a lifetime culminating in a colourful battle to save Toad Hall from the mischievous weasels!
Immersion Theatre proudly bring their trademark style and energy to the riverbank with heaps of audience interaction, stunning costumes, toe-tapping music and larger-than-life characters. The perfect summer treat for all the family!
