"blissful and fast-paced ... an excellent show" - NE Theatre

_____

"Try to imagine it as an adventure, all sorts of things might happen."

A beloved children’s classic pulls in to the People’s this summer!

When their father leaves suddenly under mysterious circumstances, Bobbie, Peter, Phyllis and their mother must move to a small cottage in rural Yorkshire where life is very different. 

The children meet new friends, save the day and divert disasters, and along the way discover a world full of imagination, love and resilience.

All aboard for Mike Kenny’s delightful adaptation of E. Nesbit's much-loved story of family, adventure and trains.

Capturing all of the angsts and exhilarations of childhood, it promises to be a heart-warming treat for all ages!
