Running Wild description
In a new adaptation by Samuel Adamson, Michael Morpurgo’s novel is one “that you know from the start is going to break your heart” (Times).
With a cast of 40 directed by Artistic Director Timothy Sheader and original Chichester director Dale Rooks, and puppetry design and direction by Finn Caldwell and Toby Olié, both previous Associate Puppetry Directors on War Horse, this is the largest-scale production ever to be presented at the Open Air Theatre.

Opening with the funeral of Will's dad, RUNNING WILD is largely set in Indonesia at the time of the 2004 tsunami. The story is predominantly a jungle adventure which will be suitable for most children, though there are some moments of tension which may be upsetting for younger children. Children under the age of 4 will not be admitted to the theatre or theatre grounds.
