The Pirate Cruncher

Connaught Theatre, Worthing

About the Show

Captain Purplebeard and his cut-throat crew are off to find an island packed with treasure! But greed leads them into some monstrously big trouble. A rollicking adventure told through thrilling action, daft nonsense, stirring shanties, and the weirdest of mechanical contraptions. Adapted from the best-selling picture book by Jonny Duddle, winner of the Waterstone’s Children’s Book Prize, this exciting, hilarious and comically gruesome tale of pirates, monsters and the ingenuity of one small girl is family theatre at its finest and silliest, a treat for children and adults alike.
