Marking the 50th anniversary of the much-loved film version, SUP returns with this acclaimed production of E. Nesbit’s classic story of an Edwardian family forced to relocate to rural Yorkshire. With unforgettable characters including the central trio of children – Bobbie, Peter and Phyllis – this Olivier Award-winning adaptation enjoyed a record-breaking run at London’s Waterloo Station.
