When Young MacDonald is left in charge of his dad’s farm while he’s away on holiday, he’s certain he can manage. After all, how hard can it be to look after a few animals? Quite hard, it turns out.
As things begin to spiral into cheerful chaos, the audience is invited to help Young MacDonald make sense of the sounds, rhythms, and routines of farm life. Featuring live music with a bold electronic edge, immersive soundscapes, catchy original songs, gentle clowning, and lots of audience interaction, the show creates a joyful world where music, play, and imagination collide.
Designed as the perfect introduction to live theatre and music, Young MacDonald Wants a Farm delights very young children while keeping grown-ups entertained too. Best described as part gig, part game show, part theatre show – and one part joyful madness, it’s a lively, inclusive experience that celebrates curiosity, creativity, and the wonderful noise of things not quite going to plan.
A limited number of Essential Companion tickets are available for patrons aged 14 and over who require assistance with disability-related access needs.
