Anansi The Spider
Superlative family theatre… is pure joy and delight”
★★★★★ The Stage
The greatest tales ever spun…
People say that in a time long, long ago, animals walked on two feet and spoke with words, like we do. And back then, it was known by everyone that the cleverest of all the animals in the kingdom was a spider – the infamous Anansi – the original trickster and the master spinner of yarns. But sometimes Anansi could be a little too clever for his own good…
Following a sold-out run in London in 2023, these classic West African and Caribbean folk tales about the lovable spider hoaxster are brought vividly to life in a magical festive show for young children and their grown-ups.
