The Borrowers
Theatre by the Lake is proud to be presenting The Borrowers by Mary Norton and adapted for the stage by Theresa Heskins. This will be our Christmas 2022 Production.
Below the floorboards of a large old house, we are plunged into the quirky, wonky, miniature world of young Arietty and her family of Borrowers. Making use of anything and everything they find ‘upstairs’, from cotton buds to postage stamps, the Borrowers are the original up-cyclers. But Arietty refuses to be boxed in by her family’s caution about the big world beyond the floorboards. When she decides to go exploring, she comes across the dreaded Human Beans and nothing will ever be the same again.
Fizzing with acrobatic feats, magical storytelling and toe tapping tunes, follow us into the Borrowers’ hidden world as the Main House at TBTL gets turned into a giant adventure playground for these small yet indomitable folk.
