The Smeds and The Smoos is coming to Lyric Theatre in 2025!
Tall Stories’ Olivier Award-nominated live stage production of The Smeds and The Smoos will soar into the Lyric Theatre next summer from 18 July to 7 September 2025. Based on the best-selling picture book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler, this intergalactic adventure tells the story of a young Smed and Smoo who defy their families’ feuds to zoom off into space together. With music, laughs, and puppets, this is a joyful tale for everyone aged 3 and up.
Julia Donaldson said, “I love the show – the brilliantly alien set and lighting, the energetic acting and the wonderful puppets.” Axel Scheffler added, “Space travel for the whole family – at its best!”
Renowned theatre company Tall Stories brings this heartwarming tale to life, continuing its legacy of adapting beloved picture books such as The Gruffalo, Room on the Broom, and The Snail and the Whale.
