The Enormous Crocodile London tickets

The snappy stage adaptation of Roald Dahl’s picture book is bursting with tasty tunes! In collaboration with the Roald Dahl Story Company and Leeds Playhouse, book your tickets to this strictly limited run at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre now!

What is The Enormous Crocodile about?

The Enormous Crocodile is weaving his way through the jungle in search of delicious little fingers and squidgy podgy knees!

Only the other jungle creatures can foil his secret plans and clever tricks, but they’re going to have to find a large amount of courage to stop this greedy brute. 

Featuring a menagerie of mischievous puppets, rib-tickling rhymes and a leading man with a killer smile, the jungle awaits the bravest of children!
