What a beautiful play!
We're not scared...

The smash-hit production of We’re Going on a Bear Hunt returns vividly and noisily to KidsFest! in director Sally Cookson’s fun-filled adaptation set to Benji Bower’s versatile lively score, direct from the West End.

Adapted for the stage from the modern classic written by Michael Rosen and illustrated by Helen Oxenbury.
