Illyria

Illyria is one of the country’s foremost theatrical interpreters of Roald Dahl’s work. Adapted for the stage by David Wood.

In Illyria’s 25th anniversary and the centenary of Dahl's birth, the company has secured the rights to perform their 5th Dahl title.

Danny and his father live in a caravan and run the village’s petrol station and garage. When Danny turns nine he is devastated to find out about his father’s secret passion for pheasant-poaching on the estate of a nasty wealth landowner, Victor Hazell.

One night, Danny finds his father has not returned from a night of poaching. Fearing that his father may be in danger, Danny sets off to rescue him.

A funny and heartwarming story perfectly suited to the open-air.

Hot and cold drinks and food will be available at the Marine Theatre bar and Pimms Bar.
