Watch The Adventures of Peter Rabbit and his Friends at The Playhouse Theatre these school holidays.
Five delightful tales including Peter Rabbit, The Tailor of Gloucester and Jemima Puddle-Duck are interwoven with the fascinating life of their creator, Beatrix Potter, in this enchanting, enlightening entertainment for all ages.
The play moves back and forth from the fantasy world she created to the intriguing story of Beatrix Potter herself, who overcame her lonely, strict childhood — in which her writings and drawings were discouraged in the male-oriented Victorian era — to become the most widely read children’s author of all times.
We also meet Beatrix’s governess, Annie, and her children for whom many of the stories were originally written.
When: 20 April – 1 May
Where: The Playhouse Theatre, 106 Bathurst Street, Hobart
