Katy Rudd (The Ocean at the End of the Lane) returns to the National Theatre to direct this ★★★★★ ‘perfect joy’ (The i), as Noel Streatfeild’s beloved novel is brought back to the Olivier Stage in this new version by Kendall Feaver (The Almighty Sometimes).
In a crumbling house full of dinosaur bones and fossils, three adopted sisters – Pauline, Petrova and Posy – are learning who they are and what they want to be. Under the watchful eyes and guidance of their guardian Sylvia, Nana, and some unlikely lodgers, they fight to pursue their individual passions. But in a world that wasn’t built for women with big ambitions, can they forge a future, keep their family together, and even learn a dance or two along the way?
Approx. 2 hours and 40 minutes including one 20 minute interval.
This production contains themes of adoption and death. Suitable for ages 7 – 107
