The second play of Saddleworth Players 2627 season: The Wind in the Willows : a highly theatrical and imaginative take on the beloved Edwardian tale by Kenneth Grahame adapted for the stage by Mike Kenny.
Tired of spring-cleaning, Mole leaves Mole End and ventures out to the riverbank, where he befriends the resourceful Ratty, the gruff Badger and the infamous Toad of Toad Hall (Poop-poop!). Together they explore the Wide World, and the Wild Wood, and try to keep Toad out of trouble…!
This delightful stage adaptation combines all the joy and mystery of Kenneth Grahame’s much-loved classic with the lightness of touch and playful theatricality that award-winning playwright Mike Kenny is known for.
This version of The Wind in the Willows was first staged at the Theatre Royal, York, in 2010.
