The Twits!

By Rohald Dahl

Adapted for the stage by David Wood

Directed by Daniel Stoddart

Composer Jenna Gill

HRDS has become known for its staging of Dahl classics…and now celebrating their 5th birthday this year’s program just wouldn’t be complete without Roald Dahl.

Sloppy and smelly, they don’t wash and they don’t clean, but they do play nasty tricks on each other. They’re not just horrible, they’re extra-specially horrible!

Mr. Twit’s beard is a host to spinach, ketchup and minced chicken livers – in fact every bit of moldy food that misses his mouth.

Mrs. Twit has a glass eye which she likes to pop in her husband’s beer, boasting “I’ve got eyes everywhere so you’d better be careful”.

The poor Muggle-Wump monkeys, stuck in a cage in the Twits weedy, grubby garden have been watching them play tricks on each other for years. Now Mr. Muggle-Wump and the magic Roly-Poly bird have an idea for a hair-raising trick of their own that threatens to turn the world of Mr. and Mrs. Twit upside down.

Book now for a disgustingly good fun-filled family show!
