Back by popular demand, Tim Bray Productions’ children’s theatre show, The Wind In The Willows, takes place in and on Takapuna’s Lake Pupuke during January 2008.
The Wind In The Willows opens on Monday 14 January and runs until Saturday 26 January.
This enchanting production, adapted from Kenneth Grahame’s classic children’s tale, takes place in the natural surroundings around The PumpHouse, Takapuna and the audience follows the adventures of Toad, Mole, Ratty, Otter and Badger as they move around the locations of Killarney Park and Lake Pupuke.
“We first did this outdoor production of The Wind in the Willows in September 2005 and we’ve been asked numerous times to do it again,” producer Tim Bray says.
“The location is fantastic and really brings the story to life with plenty of surprises.”
During the play the children interact with the story’s characters as they try to find the perfect spot for a picnic, laugh at Toad's obsession with the motorcar, and then help them rid Toad Hall of the nasty Weasels.
The play features Margaret Bremner as Mole, Madeleine Lynch as Ratty, Brad Hills as Badger, Adam Burrell as Toad and Sam Berkley as Otter.
The Wind In The Willows is the first in a series of professional children’s theatre productions presented by Tim Bray Productions in 2008. Roald Dahl’s The Twits will feature in the April school holidays.
