Information for Coraline - A Musical at Royal Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh (Musical). Based on Neil Gaiman's book. As young Coraline moves into a new home with her family, she soon discovers that things are not what they seem. The roof leaks, the wallpaper is peeling off the walls, the new neighbours are a little eccentric and her parents are so busy they hardly notice her at all. As Coraline explores her new home, she discovers a mysterious door, an entrance to a parallel "perfect" world. But not everything is as it seems - and everyone has buttons for eyes!
