Synopsis
26 – 27 June 2026
A play by Richard Tulloch
Adapted from the book by Andy Griffiths and Bill Hope.
YOU and ME have lost something important. Well… actually, lots of things. A guinea pig. A lucky rabbit’s foot. Possibly the plot! So they’re off on a wild quest through the Land of Lost Things – a world of snapping turtles, flying socks, treasure-hungry pirates, and a very anxious bull.
It’s a dangerous adventure – but with a bathtub boat, a guinea pig detector and just a little bit of luck, they might just make it home. That’s if they don’t get eaten by sharks. Or tricked by Johnny Knucklehead. Or trapped in the Lost Foot Empawrium…
The team behind the 13-, 26-, 52-, 78- and 91-Storey Treehouses brings Andy Griffiths and Bill Hopes’ brilliantly bonkers book to the stage in a hilarious new theatrical adventure for children aged 6–12 and their adults.
Get ready for action, imagination, and extremely questionable navigation. And whatever you do… don’t lose your ticket!
