Big Bad Wolf

About

Outdoor theatre returns to Holkham this summer with a dazzling performance of The Big Bad Wolf.

Come on a musical journey of plotting and scheming with folklore's most notorious villain – The Big Bad Wolf. Living in exile in the Deep Dark Wood, he parties and plays rock music every night with his cronies far away from the goody-goody townspeople of Fairytaleville. But whatever happened to Little Red Riding Hood? Did the Three Little Pigs go on to have a successful music career? And is the Wolf really as bad as he seems?

Following the success of their 2024 production of 'The Secret Garden', The Plandits are back on the road with this brand-new show bursting with live music, silliness and laughs for the whole family.

Please arrive via the north gates using the postcode NR23 1RH and proceed to the car park. Our parking team will be on hand to direct you. The performance begins at 6.15pm and lasts for approximately 2 hours. The Courtyard will be open from 5:15pm.

Low backed seating and rugs/picnic blankets are permitted at the performance. Please come prepared for all weathers! Umbrellas will not be permitted unless you are on the back row.

Sorry, no dogs are permitted, except assistance dogs. We ask that dogs are not left in vehicles during the performance.
