Five Go on an Adventure
Based on the famous adventure stories by Enid Blyton
Adapted for the stage by Tim Bray

Created for Ages: 5 – 10
Show Run Time: 50-60 mins (no interval)
The PumpHouse Theatre, Takapuna
Oh, what a marvellous adventure!
Julian, Dick and Anne, their cousin George, and dog Timmy, head off together on an adventure and end up having to solve a dastardly mystery. Along the way they meet some frightfully awful baddies and get into all sorts of scrapes. Luckily, our five heroes are famous for getting out of trouble!
With courage, capers and plenty of sandwiches and ginger beer, this Tim Bray Theatre Company show reminds us all that fun, friendship and fortitude always fool the felons! Hoorah!
After the sell-out 2023 season of Enid Blyton’s The Magic Faraway Tree, children of all ages (and their grown-ups) won’t want to miss this terrific tale.
