(Family Ticket Offer – £35)A scandalous secret. An endless golden summer. A beast they call the Green Dragon. Bobbie, Peter and Phyllis have been swept off to the English countryside by their mother, who is suddenly much too busy to play their games.
Left to explore their new home, it is not long before they feel the pull of the railway at the bottom of their garden. As they follow the tracks to the local station, a whole world opens up to them, full of charming characters, romance, peril and questions that need answering.
What to get Mr Perks for his birthday when you can’t afford butter?
Why is the 08.11 always late?
Who is stealing from the coal yard at night time?
And where has father gone anyway?
Fresh from their celebrated 2025 tour of Wind in the Willows and The Wizard of Oz, Paperback Theatre returns with a brand new, enchanting adaptation of E. Nesbits classic book ‘The Railway Children’, adapted by Charis McRoberts.
