About this event
Come on a musical journey of plotting and scheming with folklore’s most notorious villain - the Big Bad Wolf. Living in exile in the Deep Dark Wood, he parties and plays rock music every night with his cronies, far away from the goody-goody townspeople of Fairytaleville.
But whatever happened to Little Red Riding Hood? Did the Three Little Pigs go on to have a successful music career? And is the Wolf really as bad as he seems?
Following the success of their 2024 production of ‘The Secret Garden’, The Plandits are back on the road with this brand-new show bursting with live music, silliness and laughs for the whole family.
The performance will take place in West Stow Country Park. Please note “Theatre in the Parks” tickets do not include a visit to the Anglo Saxon Museum.
Please bring chairs and blankets with you, pack a picnic and dress for the weather, it is the British summer after all!
Times: 12pm & 3.30pm
Tickets: Adult £13.50, Child and Senior Concessions £11.50. Under 5's go free and do not require a ticket. Assisting carers go free and do not require a ticket.
Booking: Essential. Please click Book Tickets or call The Apex Box Office on 01284 758000
About the Venue
Surrounding the West Stow Anglo-Saxon Village and with 125 acres of unspoilt countryside, trails, heath and woodland walks, there is plenty to explore at West Stow Country Park.
For wildlife enthusiasts there are two bird hides and a bird feeding area as well as a lake and the River Lark with all the life that this attracts.
Perfect for picnics on sunny days or energetic winter walks and with an adventure playground for children, this is an ideal family destination.
Families can also enjoy the Beowulf and Grendell Adventure Trail.
Open: Daily 9am to 5pm in winter (during December and January, the park may close at dusk) Daily 9am to 8pm in summer
Cost: The park is free to enjoy (you will need to pay for parking if you need it)
Dog Friendly
Dogs are welcome in the country park, provided they are kept on a lead. Dogs are not allowed in the Anglo-Saxon Village, Museum or Visitor Centre, with the exception of assistance dogs, due to the presence of livestock and the archaeological nature of the site. Dogs are welcome in the Grounds Cafe and they offer indoor seating for your pets as well as some delicious treats- such as handmade dog biscuits and ice cream.
