Zog and his crew are flying back to the stage with a new adventure based on the bestselling book Zog and the Flying Doctors by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. They will land on the Quarry stage at Leeds Playhouse on 31 March to 1 April as part of a world premiere tour.
Zog, super keen student turned air-ambulance, still lands with a crash-bang-thump. With his Flying Doctor crew, Princess Pearl and Sir Gadabout, they tend to a sunburnt mermaid, a unicorn with one too many horns and a lion with the flu. But Pearl’s uncle, the King, has other ideas about whether princesses should be doctors, and she’s soon locked back up in the castle in a crown and a silly frilly dress. With a bit of help from her friends, will Pearl prove princesses can be doctors too?
Zog and the Flying Doctors is one of the best-loved creations of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, the UK’s number one picture book pair behind many modern classics including The Gruffalo, which has been published in 75 languages. Together their books have sold over 75 million copies.
It is brought to the stage by Freckle Productions and Rose Theatre. Freckle Productions are pioneers in imaginative storytelling for children and the team behind stage hits including Stick Man. Rose Theatre is the largest producing theatre in South West London and has established itself as one of the most exciting theatres in the UK.
