Writer

It’s Christmas Eve, the one night of the year when animals can speak. In a town being drained of colour, a struggling tailor and a family of sharp, ambitious mice finally find themselves on the brink of success. Fame and fortune await, but at what cost for their friends and neighbours?

Celebrate the 160th anniversary of Beatrix Potter’s birth this Christmas with a bold adaptation of The Tailor of Gloucester produced by Farnham Maltings, with an original script by Alex Kanefsky (Cable Street) and an electrifying original score by double Olivier Award winner Darren Clark (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button).

Packed with live rock and pop music, inventive puppetry, jokes, mischief and festive surprises, a cast of four spin this classic story into a fresh new adventure.

At its heart, this is a joyful Christmas tale about courage, community and the power of doing good, even when no one is watching. Join us to experience a musical show bursting with energy and colour, perfect for all generations to enjoy together.
