Following two sisters whose lives are upended when their father relocates the family to the idyllic countryside, this production packs in an emotional and magical experience. During an exploration of her enchanting new surroundings, Mei is exposed to a wonderous world where she encounters Totoro – the friendly guardian of the ancient forest. While her older sister Satsuki is sceptical of Mei’s claims, she quickly finds herself strapped along for the ride. As they embark on a thrilling adventure together, their mystical landscape offers new friends at every turn, in the shape of spirits, sprites, and other wonderful creatures. With its ability to resurrect the magic and wonder of childlike imagination through a spectacular production, this show offers an enjoyable experience for all audiences and is suitable for ages 4 and up. Enjoy this performance at the Gillian Lynne Theatre, a modern, yet historical location built on the site of previous venues and music hall theatres.
