About Room on the Broom (2026)
Room on the Broom (2026) at the Lyric Theatre is a Tall Stories production based on the picture book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. It brings the story from page to stage in a theatre show built around the witch, her cat and their journey on the broomstick.
The witch and her cat collect a friendly dog, a beautiful green bird and a frantic frog, but the broom snaps in two just as a hungry dragon appears. The show is Olivier Award-nominated and follows the question of whether there will be room on the broom for the witch and her four passengers.
Running time: 60 minutes. Performance dates: 27th November 2026 to 3rd January 2027.
