'Room on the Broom'

Friday 30 October - Sunday 1 November, Rose Theatre, Various times.

Jump on board the broom with the witch and her cat in Tall Stories' fun-filled adaptation of Room on the Broom, the much-loved picture book by Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler.

The witch and her cat are travelling on their broomstick when they pick up some hitch-hikers – a friendly dog, a beautiful green bird and a frantic frog. But this broomstick's not meant for five and – CRACK – it snaps in two… just as the hungry dragon appears!

Will there ever be room on the broom for the witch and her four passengers? Find out in the magical Olivier Award-nominated show for audiences aged 3 and up.

From Tall Stories, creators of imaginative storytelling theatre, where everything is possible.

Root and Branch Line

Saturday 31 October, Chessington, Tolworth and New Malden.

A series of walking and talking events along the Chessington Branch Line

Join us this autumn to explore some of the connections – real and imagined – between the Chessington Branch Line and the natural world. In conversations conducted while travelling on the line itself and on public walks branching off from its stations, we'll read together, share stories and chart our discoveries. Our collaborations will inform the creation of a podcast, as well as a new map of the branch line, which will be produced by the artist Helen Cann. The podcast and map will subsequently be displayed at Tolworth station.
