SARAH & DUCK Returns To Theatres This Summer For 10th Birthday Tour

The enchanting world of the Karrot Animation and CBeebies' hit animated series Sarah & Duck returns to the stage this Summer! Featuring a host of wonderful characters from the BAFTA Award-winning children's TV show, Sarah & Duck's Big Top Birthday opens on Saturday 22 July at Lancaster Grand Theatre and then tours throughout July and August.

Join Sarah and Duck, along with all their favourite friends including The Ribbon Sisters, The Shallots, Flamingo and Umbrella, as they plan a circus-themed birthday party for Scarf Lady in their garden. But when the weather turns windy and the big top is blown away, will Sarah and Duck be able to save the day?

Told through a fantastic blend of inventive puppetry, charming storytelling and toe-tapping music, and featuring all the familiar voices from the CBeebies series including Roger Allam as the Narrator and Lesley Nicol as Scarf Lady, Sarah & Duck's Big Top Birthday will take families on a magical theatrical adventure.

Following the gentle adventures of a wide-eyed, 7-year-old girl and her feathered best friend, Sarah & Duck has been a huge hit since its debut in 2013, winning a BAFTA for 'Best Pre-School Animation' in 2014 and regularly appearing in CBeebies' Top Ten programmes for viewers aged 4-15. It now spans 120 episodes and is broadcast in over 100 counties around the world.

Sarah & Duck's Big Top Birthday is brought to the stage by MEI Theatrical whose recent productions include Twirlywoos Live! and The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show, which has played several West End engagements.  It is written by Peter Glanville and Sarah & Duck co-creator Sarah Gomes Harris. It is directed by Roman Stefanski with set and puppet design by Laura McEwen.

Recommended for children aged 3-6.
