Oi Frog & Friends! stage show comes to London for Easter

Oi Frog & Friends! will come to London this Easter as part of its ongoing UK tour.

Kenny Wax Family Entertainment’s hit musical production will play artsdepot in North Finchley, London, from Tuesday 12 – Saturday 16 April 2022.

Adapted from the picture book by Kes Gray and Jim Field, the family stage show is created by Emma Earle, Zoe Squire, Luke Bateman and Richy Hughes.

‘Cats sit on mats, hares sit on chairs, mules sit on stools, gophers sit on sofas and frogs sit on logs.’

It’s a new day at Sittingbottom school and FROG is looking for a place to sit, but CAT has other ideas and DOG is happy to play along. Little do any of them know that chaos is coming… who knew there were so many rhyming rules and what will happen when FROG is in charge?

Join FROG, DOG and CAT live on stage in Oi Frog & Friends!, the 55-minute action-packed play with original songs, puppets, laughs and, of course, more rhyme than you can shake a chime at!

The cast line-up for the 2021/22 UK tour is: Jake Addley as DOG (alternate CHEETAH), Rebecca Ayres as CAT (Understudy CHEETAH), Christopher Dobson as CHEETAH (alternate DOG), Emily Essery as FROG (Understudy CAT and ASM) and Sarah Palmer as FROG (Understudy CAT and ASM).

Illustrator Jim Field said: “Seeing the characters brought to life from our series of Oi books was both surreal and incredible. Oi Frog & Friends! bounces along with non-stop energy, amazing puppets, funny songs, shouty rhymes, and a squirty elephant trunk. It’s brilliantly bonkers!”

Nominated for an Olivier Award for Best Family Show, Oi Frog & Friends! is an ideal introduction to theatre and the perfect entertainment for schools, groups and families with children aged 3+.
