August 2011. Riots are spreading. It’s summer, it’s hot and the entire country is holding its breath… As events fly out of control, a group of friends are caught in the middle. Shaken by what they see and do, their friendship is tested like never before. What will happen when life returns to normal? And what are people saying about the ‘youth of today’?

A play with songs by Toby Hulse Based on the novel by Kenneth Grahame
“Believe me, my young friend, there is nothing – absolutely nothing – half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats” When Mole abandons spring-cleaning for the delights of the riverbank, he has no idea of the adventures that lie ahead. With Toad’s obsession for all things fast causing chaos (poop, poop!), it falls upon his friends Ratty, Mole and wise old Badger to save him. But that means coming faceto-face with the ferrets and weasels of the Wild Wood…
