BFG at The RSC, Stratford Upon Avon

BFG at The RSC, Stratford Upon Avon

The RSC is bringing The BFG to the stage in Stratford Upon Avon.

Gather your chiddlers to see Roald Dahl’s unforgettable story come to life this winter.

‘Once you is knowing dreams is real… you is seeing them very easily’

One extraordinary night, a young orphan named Sophie is snatched by a giant and taken far away to Giant Country.

There she learns that human-eating giants are guzzling ‘norphans’ the world over. But she soon discovers that her new friend, the BFG, is different – he’s a dream-catching, snozzcumber-munching gentle soul who refuses to eat humans.

While other giants terrorise the world, the BFG ignites Sophie’s imagination, and they devise a daring plan to save children everywhere. In the end, the smallest human bean and the gentlest giant prove that a dream can change the world.

Tom Wells’ magical new adaptation is directed by RSC Co-Artistic Director Daniel Evans, whose previous productions include QuizSouth Pacific and Our Generation.
