TheatreWorks is proud to present Enid Blyton's classic, 'Noddy', adapted by David Wood and directed by David Blakey

Noddy and his friends are pitted against the sneering goblins and a greedy witch, in this funny and inventive adaptation.

As in the original works, Noddy learns the value of friendship, hard work, and honesty through a series of adventures: building his house in Toytown, driving a car, outwitting his enemies, even surviving a hair-raising experience at Noah’s Ark! Noddy is a mix of adventure, morality tale and pantomime, with plenty for the whole family to enjoy!

Poll: Should learning about climate change be part of the school curriculum?

Stacey Reporter from Stuff

Climate change is the most critical issue of the moment, and has been described by our prime minister as her generation's "nuclear-free moment". Its impacts, regardless of your views on it, are only going to get greater.

Climate change is the most critical issue of the moment, and has been described by our prime minister as her generation's "nuclear-free moment". Its impacts, regardless of your views on it, are only going to get greater.
