The BFG (Big Friendly Giant)

The BFG (Big Friendly Giant)

This stage adaptation of Roald Dahl’s classic book about the 24-foot-tall Big Friendly Giant and a little orphan called Sophie brings some of Dahl’s most memorable characters to life.

Adapted for the stage by David Wood
From the book by Roald Dahl

Little orphan Sophie can’t sleep. When she peeks out the window, she is surprised to see a giant. He’s surprised to see her too and whisks Sophie away to his home in Giant Country. But this is no ordinary giant; Sophie’s giant is the world’s only friendly 24-foot-tall giant. His primary occupation is the collection and distribution of good dreams to children. Other giants steal and have a nasty habit of eating children! To save the children of England, Sophie and the Big Friendly Giant (BFG) embark on a magical journey to Buckingham Palace where they must convince the Queen to help them get rid of all the bad giants once and for all. Along the way, Sophie finds a friend she can count on and the BFG finds a friend who accepts him for who he is. The Big Friendly Giant promises to deliver a captivating mix of thrilling adventures, playful wordplay, and even some explosive whizzpopping moments guaranteed to make you smile!
