Quentin Blake's 'Mrs Armitage on Wheels'

If you could change anything on your bicycle, what would it be? A comfy new saddle? An ice cream maker? Rocket boosters?! 

When Mrs Armitage goes out for a ride with her trusty dog Breakspear, she decides her bicycle needs improvement. With a new horn, a picnic hamper… and a sail, will Mrs Armitage manage to keep her bicycle in one piece, or will her crazy contraption prove too much to handle? 

Adapted from Quentin Blake’s classic tale, Farnham Maltings presents Scoot Theatre’s interactive, energetic show, celebrating the joy of getting outdoors and being active. 

Featuring live music, puppetry and physical comedy, join us for a celebration of imagination and the importance of resilience.
