Summer Theatre - The Big Bad Wolf: A Rock Musical

Come on a musical journey of plotting and scheming with folklore’s most notorious villain - the Big Bad Wolf. Presented by The Plandits in the grounds of Polesden Lacey on Saturday 4 July at 6.30pm.

  • Booking essential

​Living in exile in the Deep Dark Wood, the Big Bad Wolf parties and plays rock music every night with his cronies, far away from the goody-goody townspeople of Fairytaleville.

But whatever happened to Little Red Riding Hood? Did the Three Little Pigs go on to have a successful music career? And is the Wolf really as bad as he seems?

The Plandits are back on the road with this brand-new show bursting with live music, silliness and laughs for the whole family.
