The Tailor of Gloucester

Monday 9 – Saturday 28 December

Beatrix Potter’s

THE TAILOR OF GLOUCESTER

Christmas Day is just around the corner and the Tailor of Gloucester is busy working on an extraordinary new coat for the Mayor. But the Tailor is unwell and worried that the coat might not be finished in time for the Mayor’s wedding on Christmas Day. Simpkin, her cat, is too busy chasing mice to help but who knows what might happen on this, the most magical night of the year.

The writers behind The Night Before Christmas and Little Robin Redbreast bring another magical, musical show to the stage for young children and families this Christmas.

Ideal for young children and their families
