Lion Lion
By Sue Glover
George & Joy Adamson, like many others, loved the animal kingdom as much, probably more, than their fellow humans. Camping for years where humans were few, but dangerous wildlife teemed around them. With no mobiles, to relieve isolation, how did they react to the wilderness? Did they conduct themselves like civilised human beings? Or draw from the animals they studied?
Ticket includes:
A play, a pie and a pint of beer/125ml glass of house wine or a regular glass of Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, lemonade, orange juice, filter coffee or tea
A vibrant mix of themes, characters and stories
Lunchtime and evening performances
Easily digestible 50-min play packages
Venue: T2
Age recommendation: 14+
