The Lion Inside

Based on the book by Rachel Bright & Jim Field
Adapted & Directed by Sarah Punshon
Music & Lyrics by Eamonn O’Dwyer

Nicoll Entertainment present a Rose Theatre, Curve, MAST Mayflower Studios, and Unicorn Theatre production.

‘No matter your size, we all have a mouse and a lion inside.’

A heart-warming tale about confidence, self-esteem, and a shy little mouse who sets out on a journey to find his roar.

In a dry dusty place where the sand sparkled gold, stood a mighty flat rock, all craggy and old. And under that rock in a tinyful house, lived the littlest, quietest, meekest brown mouse.

Fed up of being ignored and forgotten by the other animals, Mouse wishes he could roar like Lion. But, as he discovers, even the biggest, bossiest people are scared sometimes … and even the smallest creatures can have the heart of a lion!

Based on the best-selling story by Rachel Bright & Jim Field, this brand new stage adaptation is directed by Sarah Punshon (The Jungle Book), with music and lyrics by Eamonn O’Dwyer (Brief Encounter).
