Adapted from the award-winning picture book by Chris Haughton, this show for everyone aged 3+ uses acrobatics, slapstick comedy and live music to bring George’s chaotic and joyful escapades to life.First created in 2020, we will be taking George back out on tour in Spring 2022 to mid-large scale venues across the UK.
