Family stage show with songs and puppetry inspired by the Pip and Posy series and the picture books by Axel Scheffler.
Pip and Posy Live on Stage comes to the Princess Theatre on Saturday 13 March 2027, with two performances on the one day: a matinee at 1:00pm and an evening show at 4:00pm. It's a brand-new theatre production from the producers of The Smartest Giant in Town, and it's built around the friendship and fun that give the series its name.
The show takes its lead from the BAFTA-nominated animated series by Magic Light Pictures, which in turn comes from the picture books by Axel Scheffler — the same illustrator behind The Gruffalo. At its heart, it's a celebration of imagination, kindness and creativity for little ones and their families. Pip and Posy are best friends whose lives revolve around the world of play, and together with their friends Mo and Jamila they set off on an adventure through tangled jungles, across slimy swamps and high above the clouds aboard a big red balloon, all while the Troll hunts for the treasure.
On stage, that adventure is brought to life with toe-tapping songs, puppetry and interactive play, so it's as much about the kids getting involved as it is about watching the story unfold. If your little ones already know Pip and Posy from the books or the screen, they'll recognise the characters and the kind of gentle, imaginative play they're known for. If they're new to them, it's a good place to start.
