A Squash and a Squeeze

25th March 2025 By

Presented by Little Angel Theatre and Lowry

Based on the original book A Squash and a Squeeze – written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Scheffler

An illustration from Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler's A Squash and a Squeeze.

Step into the magical world of A Squash and a Squeeze live on stage for the first time!

Once upon a time, a little old lady lived all by herself in her cosy cottage, but she wasn’t happy – her house felt just too small. Whatever could she do? Will the wise old man’s solution of bringing in a flappy, scratchy, greedy, noisy crowd of farmyard animals work?

Join us for this heartwarming and hilarious adventure, full of beautiful puppets and enchanting songs. Written and illustrated by the unparalleled picture book partnership of Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, and adapted for the stage by Olivier-nominated duo Barb Jungr and Samantha Lane.

Recommended age: 3 to 8

Running time: 1 hour
