About The Ocean at the End of the Lane
This wondrous spectacle weaves together a story of sorcery and memories, captivating audiences with a spellbinding odyssey to a childhood long forgotten and a place that is on the brink of darkness.
When a man returns to the cherished abode of his youth, he finds himself standing by a serene pond of the age-old Sussex farmhouse that was once his playground. Suddenly, he is whisked away to his twelfth birthday, a momentous occasion where his extraordinary companion, Lettie, proclaimed that this humble pond was no ordinary pool, it was in fact an ocean, a realm where boundless possibilities dwell.
Thrust into a world of magic and wonder, their very survival hinges upon their ability to confront ancient forces that are poised to annihilate all that surrounds them. Amidst mystery and peril, they must summon the courage to grapple with the powers that seek to unravel their world.

Review: The Ocean at the End of the Lane (Duke of York's Theatre, West End)
It is great getting back to the theatre – there is nothing quite like the experience and this is certainly one to go to if you like a full-on fantasy fiction experience.
Following a sold out run at the National Theatre, the acclaimed production of The Ocean at the End of the Lane has transferred to the West End. Neil Gaiman is a multi-skilled writer, not just an icon in the mystery fiction world but also established in producing comic books, graphic novels, non-fiction and film. His imagination is, to be honest, rambling and clever and scary and impressive in equal parts and the adaptation of this novel as a stage play was a challenge well executed.
