Gulliver's Travels returns to Northern Ireland this summer - its place of inspiration - in a spectacular musical adaptation from the creative team behind the West End's Once The Musical with music from platinum-selling singer songwriter Duke Special and book by stand-up comedian Andrew Doyle. Voyage through unknown lands with mythical creatures and witness Jonathan Swift's classic satirical tale magically brought to life on stage. Swift conceived the idea of a 'giant's story' while overlooking Belfast from Cave Hill and subsequently wrote the majority of Gulliver's Travels in Cookstown, County Tyrone! Follow Lemuel Gulliver on his whirlwind expedition when he finds himself washed ashore after a devastating shipwreck. Captured by the miniature beings of Lilliput and exploited by the giants of Brobdingnag, Gulliver journeys through wild lands encountering new civilisations, experiencing all things weird and wonderful. Step aboard; the adventure awaits...
