Peppa Pig returns for Treasure Hunt, 15 Feb
Following sell out dates at The Lowry, Peppa Pig returns to the region for two more dates in October. The BAFTA Award-winning children’s TV show Peppa Pig is recreated live on stage using magical puppets.
Peppa
is a playful little pig who lives with her little brother George, Mummy
Pig and Daddy Pig. Through everyday adventures she plays games, makes
new friends and enjoys her absolutely favourite activity – jumping up
and down in muddy puddles.
Peppa Pig’s Treasure
is a chance for all her young friends to join in the fun with Suzy
Sheep, Danny Dog and Emily Elephant for her perfect party. This
charming, original and imaginative show is full of brand new songs,
muddy puddles and oinks.
Nigel Plaskitt, Puppetry Consultant
for the show, is the most experienced puppet specialist in the UK. His
many credits include Monkey (who appears alongside Al played by Johnny
Vegas) in the current award-winning commercials for PG Tips; Spitting
Image; and the current West End hit show Avenue Q. The show’s music comes from LazyTown’s composer Mani Svavarsson. Director Richard Lewis (who has also adapted Peppa Pig for stage) has many acclaimed children’s stage shows to his credit, including Fimbles and the two LazyTown Live! tours (2007 – 2008 and 2009).
Peppa Pig’s Treasure Hunt is produced by the team (Fiery Angel and Limelight Productions) behind the recent tour of LazyTown Live! and it arrives at the Opera House in Manchester from 15 – 16 February, 2012.
