The BFG (Big Friendly Giant
January 19 - February 10
Saturdays & Sundays at 4 pm
Based
on the book by Roald Dahl
Adapted for the stage by David Wood
Sophie is snatched from her orphanage early one morning
by the BFG (Big Friendly Giant), whom she has witnessed engaging
in mysterious activities, and whisked away to Giant Country.
She is soon put at ease, as she learns that BFG's job is to
collect, catalogue and deliver pleasant dreams to children.
She joins him that night, but the mean giants follow them,
planning to eat the children. Sophie enlists the help of the
Queen of England, by making up a dream for her, and with the
backing of the armed forces, they defeat the mean giants.
This ingenious story of an unlikely friendship between an
orphan and a giant is pure Roald Dahl. Wickedly funny with
surprises at every turn.
