Awful Auntie by David Walliams, adapted for the outdoor stage by Heartbreak Productions is a truly thrilling tale. Owls, ghosts, chases, escapes, motorcycle rides, and tiddlywinks all fill Stella’s day as she evades her menacing Aunt and saves her family home. So, please join us at the dedication of the new playground at Saxby Hall and hear how it all came about.
The new playground at the Saxby Hall Orphanage is finally complee, and we can’t wait to celebrate with you. The orphange was founded by Stella Saxby, who some of your may remember. Her parents were killed in a car crash in 1933, leaving her an orphan, all alone with her Awful Auntie. And when we say awful we mean awful. Aunt Alberta and her best friend Wagner, a vicious Bavarian owl, tried everything they could to torment Stella into signing over the deed to Saxby Hall. But Stella, with the help of her friend Soot (the ghost of a chimney sweep, but friends come in all sharpes and sizes don’t they ??) fought off Aunt Alberta, saved Saxby Hall, and gifted the beautiful Saxby Hall to be used as an orphange.
Make sure you bring a blanket or chair to sit on, weather appropriate clothing as it is outdoors and a picnic or snacks as the take could take some time to tell, and storytelling can be hungry work!!
