George’s Marvellous Medicine

“We present Roald Dahl’s amazing story about a young boy who makes a marvellous new medicine to cure his grandmother of her terrifying temper. But when his grandmother drinks his special new potion, the most incredible things start to happen. And George’s adventure has just begun!

”The Birmingham Stage Company is back on tour with a brand new adaptation of one of Roald Dahl’s most exciting stories, which was featured on BBC’s Blue Peter! It follows the company’s acclaimed productions of Horrible Histories, Why the Whales Came and Danny the Champion of the World. If you’re looking for fizztickling fun and wizzpopping magic for all the family, then don’t miss George and his Marvellous Medicine!"
