Quentin Blake's Mrs Armitage on Wheels

Mrs Armitage is a brilliant and eccentric inventor whose wild and wonderful creations are always remarkably useful. When she and her faithful dog Breakspear set off on a quiet bike ride to visit cousin Angela, she can't stop thinking of ways to improve her bike. But after adding horns, snack trays, umbrellas, a dog bed and even a sail, will she ever get there? Featuring puppetry and live music, this brand-new musical adaptation of the award-winning BBC animated series Quentin Blake's Box of Treasures celebrates the power of imagination and the importance of community.
