The stage adaptation of The Baddies, based on Julia Donaldson’s and Axel Scheffler’s book of the same name, is running at the Rose Theatre in Kingston from 29 October to 3 November.
Donaldson and Scheffler have previously created picture book favourites such as The Gruffalo, Stick Man, and Zog.
The book is about a little girl moves into a nearby cottage, and the Baddies can’t wait to scare her out of her wits.

But the little girl quickly shows them that you don’t have to be big to be brave, and baddies don’t always win.
The book was published by Alison Green Books, an imprint of Scholastic Children’s Books.
With songs by Joe Stilgoe (Zog and Zog and The Flying Doctors), The Baddies stage adaptation is a wickedly hilarious adaptation of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler’s smash-hit story. A laugh-out-loud riot for all the family.
This is a Freckle Productions & The Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh co-production.
In this stage production, audience members will get the chance to meet the very worst Baddies in the world, including a witch, a ghost, and an ancient troll.

The titular Baddies love being bad. They roar, spook and cast wicked spells to try and scare a girl out of her wits.
The show will run for approximately one hour and the age guidance is most suitable for those aged three and over, but all ages are welcome.
