What the Ladybird Heard plays Cadogan Hall

Kenny Wax presents the stage version of Julia Donaldson and Lydia Monks' children's novel What The Ladybird Heard, adapted and directed by Graham Hubbard, at Cadogan Hall near Sloane Square, in west London, from 24 Jul to 10 Aug 2014.

Donaldson and Monks are perhaps best known for their award-winning books 'The Gruffalo' and 'Room on the Broom', which have also been adapted for the stage over the years.

Synopsis: 'Hefty Hugh and Lanky Len have a cunning plan to steal the farmer's fine prize cow. But they reckon without the tiniest, quietest creature of all: The Ladybird has a plan of her own!'

The cast of What The Ladybird Heard includes Rosamund Hine (Jo), Rachael Henley (Lily), Matt Bateman (Hefty Hugh), Matt Jopling (Lanky Len) and David Shute.

What The Ladybird Heard features scenic design by Bek Palmer in consultation with Lydia Monks, sound design and original music by Jon Fiber and Andy Shaw for Shock Productions and lighting by Rick Mountjoy.

The production is 55 minutes in length and recommended for families with children ages 3+.
