The Wind in the Willows : Preview + Giveaway!

The Wind in the Willows

The Wind in the Willows had been one book that contributed to my literacy journey in my younger days. I could not remember if it was primary or secondary school that I had first acquainted with it but I had a faint memory the story.

The main character Toad stood out. He is rich, jovial, friendly and kind-hearted, but at the same time conceited. AS it was ages ago, I could not recall the full story. When I knew The Wind in the Willows is coming to Singapore, it was inevitable that I would like to bring the Wackies along to see the play... just to bring back the memories of childhood.

The production is brought to you by ABA Productions and Talking Scarlet (UK) . Honestly I half expected the actors to be fully suited up according to the characters of the book. From the press releases, it does seem there is a different interpretation to the story. Hopefully this surprise element would bring a new positive twist to the tale.

If you do not know the full story, it is as follows

When Mole plucks up the courage to explore the Riverbank with his friend Ratty, nothing can prepare him for the adventure that awaits. Along with Badger and the irrepressible Mr Toad, the foursome career from one exploit to the next culminating in a battle not only to save Toad Hall, but their very way of life. This new adaptation captures all the wit and bonhomie of Kenneth Grahame’s original novel, and aims to bring the delights of this literary classic to yet another generation of children and a touch of showbiz to the Riverbank!

Talking Scarlet had successfully toured UK on 3 occasions. Don't miss this unique opportunity to see a masterpiece of children's literature brought to the stage by one of the UK's most innovative and prolific production companies.

The Wind in the WIllows will have a limited run at SOTA from 12-14 June. For timings and bookings, do refer here.
