Sensory-Friendly Matinee: Saturday, March 28 – 2:00 PM
Based on Kenneth Grahame’s treasured novel, which has captivated generations of readers for over a century, The Wind in the Willows has been adapted for the stage with a book by Oscar-winning screenwriter and Downton Abbey creator Julian Fellowes, and music and lyrics by Olivier Award-winning composers George Stiles and Anthony Drewe.
Kenneth Grahame’s wild tale about the thrill-seeking, lovable menace Mr. Toad comes to life in this exciting stage musical. Ratty, Badger, and Mole join the exuberant Toad on a series of adventures—and misadventures—caused by his insatiable need for speed.
