Oi Frog & Friends! Live on Stage

by | Jan 11, 2022 | Dartford Charities, Dartford News

Based on the bestselling books by
Kes Gray and Jim Field

‘Cats sit on mats, hares sit on chairs, mules sit on stools, gophers sit on sofas and frogs sit on logs’

It’s a new day at Sittingbottom school and FROG is looking for a place to sit, but CAT has other ideas and DOG is
doing as he’s told. Who knew there were so many rhyming rules and what will happen when FROG is in charge?

Join FROG, CAT and DOG in this Olivier Award nominated action-packed stage adaptation of Kes Gray and Jim Field’s
bestselling books. Expect songs, puppets, laughs and more rhymes than you can shake a chime at.

Oi Frog & Friends! is created for the stage by Emma Earle, Zoe Squire, Luke Bateman and Richy Hughes.

55 minutes of fun for ages 3+ (no interval)
