Summer Of Stig
Stig of the Dump activities, films and shows at Storyhouse and Grosvenor Park Open Air Theatre!- Cinema, The Kitchen
What's happening in Summer Of Stig?
Join us at Storyhouse for a special summer of family activities, films and events to celebrate Stig of the Dump at Grosvenor Park Open Air Theatre!
A magical new version of the beloved story, with a brand new wild and wonderful twist.
While the other children excitedly begin their summer holidays, Barney finds himself stuck in a new village with no-one to make friends with. Why? Because Barney is Deaf.
That is, until he takes a tumble into the deep, meets a caveman and begins an unforgettable adventure, where everyone is invited. Join the junkyard band, discover an amazing new language and go wild with a caveman in this riotous celebration of friendship and kindness, adapted by acclaimed writer Jess Swale (Horrible Histories The Movie).
