Mr Gum and the Dancing Bear - the Musical

Work:: Mr Gum and the Dancing Bear (S1945284222)

Based on the hilariously anarchic Mr Gum children's book. An all-singing, all-dancing, occasionally-burping extravaganza for children and adults alike. Can nine-year-old Polly get Padlock the bear to safety? Or will the villainous Mr Gum and his sidekick Billy William III prevail? Full of bizarre characters, surreal whimsy and songs, this is definitely not your average family fare.
