Evening of Outdoor Theatre - BABE THE SHEEP-PIG by Dick King-Smith, adapted by David Wood

Friday 26th July

Farmer Hoggett wins a piglet at the fair - and everyone knows what fate awaits piglets raised on a farm. Adopted by Fly the sheepdog, Babe develops his own methods of herding sheep using politeness instead of barking orders, and even saves the flock from being stolen by sheep rustlers. But Farmer Hoggett is a hard man to please - so when Babe is entered for the county sheep dog trials he is going to need Fly's help, all his wits, and as much politeness as he can muster if he is going to get the sheep to co-operate, win the trials, and save his life.

Set in Raby’s idyllic Walled Gardens, Illyria are sure to delight and enchant the whole family, so bring along a rug, a deckchair and a picnic to enjoy this classic children’s story brought to life.

Gates open at 5.00pm for pre-show picnics, the performance will begin at 6.00pm.

Adults: £13.50

Children (1 - 15): £11.50

(All Children must be accompanied by a paying adult)
