“I still love its irresistible mix of magic, yogic powers and global travel. “(The story’s) darkly funny and dangerous edge really appealed to me,” explains director Ben. “Roald Dahl stories are thrilling, a little disturbing and get under your skin,” says Perth Theatre artistic director Lu Kemp. Unlike favourites such as Charlie And The Chocolate Factory or James And The Giant Peach, which were written for all ages, Henry Sugar was aimed at older children and adults, making it a little more mature – but just as magical.
No Giant Peaches in this Magic ShowĪnd the play will certainly be something different for Roald Dahl fans. It follows “an idle playboy who longs for more money, a teenage girl who longs for online fame, and a conjurer who longs to be believed”. The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar will premiere at Perth Theatre in March 2022, as part of a collaboration with Helen Milne Productions and The Roald Dahl Story Company.ĭescribed as a “Roald Dahl magic show”, the play is the first UK stage adaptation of the famous author’s book of short stories, The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar (And Six More). Perth Theatre has revealed a “scrumdiddlyumptious” new play due to the boards next year, based on short stories by legendary children’s author Roald Dahl.
