Newly appointed Artistic Director Rachel Bagshaw today announced two world premieres of major book adaptations as part of her inaugural season at the Unicorn, plus the release of Roald Dahl’s The Magic Finger in partnership with Roald Dahl Story Company as part of Unicorn Online.
Full 24/25 programme to be announced later this year.
Rachel Bagshaw said today, “I am delighted to start my tenure at the Unicorn by announcing two major shows in our 24/25 season as a sneak peek of the work to come.
I’m hugely excited to be directing Odd and the Frost Giants this Christmas, a show that promises a wondrous mix of magic, bravery and humour, and captures both our imaginations and hearts in its storytelling.
I am also thrilled to be collaborating with Sheffield Theatres and Children’s Theatre Partnership on Pig Heart Boy, a major adaptation of a Malorie Blackman favourite. I can’t wait to see this landmark novel for young audience develop into its world premiere stage production.”
