What's the story?
Join Ratty and Moley and the mischievous Toad of Toad Hall as they set off on their adventures along the river bank. Using minimal set and everyday objects our two actors will bring this story to life for all the family. Whether it's a motor car, caravan or hidden tunnel hang on tight as we delight in this famous story from inside Letchworth's wonderful venue The Settlement.
Why no fixed ticket prices?
Tickets are 'Pay What You Decide' . The Living Theatre and Letchworth Festival believe that its vital everyone can have access to exciting family theatre. Book your place for free and then at the end of the performance we'll be able to take card or cash for what you feel you can afford - no questions asked.
Who are The Living Theatre?
The Living Theatre is a theatre company, with a mission to enthral audiences with the outdoors and the arts. You may have seen them performing 'Shakespeare in the Park' at last year's Letchworth Festival. Running out of their own venue in Hertfordshire they have produced 5 years of highly praised exciting outdoor events.
It's also leading up to '30 Days Wild' in June - a nature-filled month of activities. Watch this space!
