Following seasons in London and New York, one of the most iconic characters in children’s literature will wiggle his way to the Worcester stage next month, in celebration of a big birthday.
The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show will play two performances only at The Swan Theatre on Thursday July 11 as part of a major UK Tour celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the book.
A spokesman said: "The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show features a menagerie of 75 enchanting puppets during a magical 60-minute show that faithfully adapts four of Eric Carle’s best loved books for the stage. The 50th Anniversary production will feature a brand-new line-up of stories for 2019; Brown Bear, 10 Little Rubber Ducks, the return of The Very Lonely Firefly and, of course, The Very Hungry Caterpillar.
The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show is adapted for the stage by director Jonathan Rockefeller, "whose production sees four master puppeteers weave their way through Eric Carle’s stories."
