About Room on the Broom (2026)

Room on the Broom (2026) at the Lyric Theatre is Tall Stories’ stage adaptation of the picture book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler. The show follows the witch and her cat as they travel on their broomstick and pick up a friendly dog, a green bird and a frantic frog, before the broom snaps in two just as a hungry dragon appears.

This Olivier Award-nominated production comes from Tall Stories, the company behind imaginative storytelling theatre. It presents the story in a family-friendly theatrical format, with songs, puppetry and animated performances described in the source material.

Running time: 60 minutes. Dates: 27th November 2026 to 3rd January 2027.
