“For my lunch today I would like… a nice juicy little child!”
He’s greedy, he’s grumptious, he’s horrid!

The Enormous Crocodile is weaving his way through the jungle to Newcastle in search of delicious little fingers and squidgy podgy knees… Only the other jungle creatures can foil his secret plans and clever tricks, but they’re going to have to find a large amount of courage to stop this greedy brute.

This mischievous musical based on Roald Dahl’s snappy book has toe-tapping tunes and a rib-tickling book!
