If you love War Horse, there is every chance you will love Why The Whales Came, which shows at Stantonbury Theatre on Tuesday (October 18) and is from the same pen belonging to Michael Morpurgo.
Children Gracie and Daniel have been forbidden to go near the mysterious and seemingly dangerous Birdman.
But messages and clues intrigue them and, after being lost at sea in the fog and stranded on his tiny island, they begin to unravel the Birdman’s secrets, the villagers’ fears and superstitions and learn why the whales came to the island.
Multi-award winning storyteller Danyah Miller vividly brings to life the most enchanting tale.
The aforementioned Morpurgo is a fan of hers too: He’s a fan of Danyah too, calling her “...a storytelling phenomenon. I shan't miss 'Why The Whales Came. Don't You miss it either.
"It will be a theatrical tour de force, that’s for sure.”
Suitable for little folks aged seven years and up, the hour long show starts at 1.30pm.
