PERFECT family fare for the Easter school holidays, KickstArt’s The BFG returns to the Elizabeth Sneddon Theatre on UZKN campus from 21 to 31 March.
Following the sold-out success of KickstArt’s July 2018 season of The BFG, Greg King returns to redirect this enchanting reimagining of Roald Dahl’s delightful children’s classic about the adventures of a big friendly giant, and Sophie, a little orphan he befriends.
Ten-year-old Sophie is in for the adventure of a lifetime when she meets the Big Friendly Giant. Naturally scared at first, the young girl soon realises that the 24-foot behemoth is actually quite gentle and charming. As their friendship grows, Sophie’s presence attracts the unwanted attention of Bloodbottler, Fleshlumpeater and other giants. After travelling to London, Sophie and the BFG must convince the Queen to help them get rid of all the bad giants once and for all.
