As spring arrives the good-natured Mole loses patience with his daily monotony and proclaims, “Hang spring cleaning!” Thus begins his remarkable journey onto the previously unseen and idyllic river and into the absolutely frightening ‘Wild Woods’ with his new-found friends Ratty, Badger and the wealthy … but decidedly eccentric … Toady.
Join Blue Bridge Rep as it brings to life this 1908 classic family story by British writer Kenneth Grahame in a radio play, script-in-hand styled, version starring some of Victoria’s and Canada’s most talented actors, directors and designers.
Sip your tea or drink of choice and nibble on British themed culinary delights on the idyllic outdoor patio of UVic’s University Club while watching real bunnies, otters and ducks lovingly mock the efforts of humans to unlock the mystery of the natural world.
Suitable for audiences of all ages. Unleash your inner child!
