A perfect introduction to theatre for any child
Theatre and Tonic


Thu 28 - Sat 30 May 2026
“For my lunch today I would like… a nice juicy little child!”
He’s greedy, he’s grumptious, he’s horrid!
The Enormous Crocodile is weaving his way through the jungle to Cardiff in search of delicious little fingers and squidgy podgy knees… Only the other jungle creatures can foil his secret plans and clever tricks, but they’re going to have to find a large amount of courage to stop this greedy brute.
This mischievous musical based on Roald Dahl’s snappy book has toe-tapping tunes by Ahmed Abdullahi Gallab, a rib-tickling book and lyrics by Suhayla El-Bushra, and additional music and lyrics by Tom Brady. Developed and directed by Emily Lim, it features a menagerie of puppets by co-director and puppetry designer Toby Olié, with set and costume design by Fly Davis and puppetry co-designed and supervised by Daisy Beattie.
Snap up your tickets today for this wickedly funny musical adventure, perfect for the whole family!
The Enormous Crocodile played at Theatre Royal Windsor, Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre and The Lowry, and toured the US with performances in Minneapolis and Los Angeles in 2025.
We offer dedicated performances to make this event more accessible for everyone.
