The Secret Elephant
By Steven Lee
A “Story Time” family musical from the creators of The Witch Who Couldn’t Sleep.
Following the hugely popular tour of The Witch Who Couldn’t Sleep, The People’s Theatre Company and bestselling children’s author Steven Lee return with a brand-new family adventure that is bigger, bolder and more brilliant than ever. Step inside Steven’s magical writing shed and help him uncover the incredible story of an elephant that shouldn’t exist, and the breathtaking journey that carried her from the plains of Africa all the way to the shores of Australia. Together, you and your children will meet a brave elephant brother and sister, escape danger, cross vast oceans and discover how one extraordinary act of love changed the world forever. Packed with award-winning animation, astonishing puppetry, sing-along songs, giggles, gasps and endless chances for your young ones to shout out, join in and help shape the story as it unfolds, this epic family adventure is a heartwarming celebration of courage, love and the unbreakable bond between brother and sister. The Secret Elephant is the perfect feel-good show for children, grown-ups and anyone who feels like the very best adventures are the ones we share together.
