THE WITCHES by Roald Dahl Adapted by David Wood

"In fairy-tales, witches always wear silly black hats and black cloaks, and they ride on broomsticks.

But this is not a fairy-tale.This is about REAL WITCHES."

Witches absolutely detest children. To a witch, a child smells like dogs’ droppings. And now the Grand High Witch is planning to get rid of every child in England – can anybody stop them? The Witches tells the story of a brave young boy and his Norwegian grandmother as they battle against England’s child-hating witches.

The Witches continues to be a massive success 30 years after it was first published and this stage adaptation is a sure fire hit with adults and children alike.

"This stylish adaptation of Roald Dahl's The Witches is so utterly beguiling, it carries you along on a glorious journey of fiendish fantasy. The Witches is top drawer family entertainment - chilling but thrilling!" (Bournemouth Evening Echo)
