Lilliput is put on a Kettering stage

The critically acclaimed Pantaloons Theatre Company bring an innovative version of Jonathan Swift’s classic novel Gulliver’s Travels to the venue on Saturday, June 11.

Join Lemuel Gulliver on a fantastical and hilarious voyage into the unknown. Meet the tiny people of Lilliput and the giants of Brobdingnag, visit the flying island of Laputa and a country populated entirely by talking horses.

This is a brand new, adventurous and hilarious adaptation of Jonathan Swift’s classicsatirical story loved by adults and children alike.

Writer Mark Hayward said: “We characterise our work as post-modern folk theatre.

“We take well-loved tales and give them a contemporary twist, making them accessible for new audiences and showing seasoned fans something that they perhaps had not seen in them before.

“We also like to give ourselves a challenge.

“With all the fantastical elements Gulliver’s Travels is almost impossible to stage, which is why this new production is partly a faithful literary adaptation, partly a sketch comedy and party a play about how difficult it is to put thebook on stage.

“The Pantaloons production of Gulliver’s Travels is literally going to be huge amounts of fun.”

Tickets for the show, which is suitable for the family are £10 for adults and £9 for concessions. The show starts at 7.30pm.
