Dahl’s gruesome twosome The Twits, live on stage in a visually-spectacular, delightfully-disgusting, revoltingly-funny production for the whole family
Roald Dahl’s gruesome twosome The Twits are ready to delight and disgust, in equal measure.
Mr and Mrs Twit are the nastiest couple you could ever hope (not) to meet. Both are on a quest to be meaner than the other – but, is there someone out there who can out-twit the Twits?
Full of trickery and wickedly-funny pranks, Dahl’s adored classic encourages us to treat others with love and care and proves that if you have good thoughts, they will shine out of your face like sunbeams.
Packed with Dahlicious mischief, hilarious mayhem and big belly laughs, The Twits is an unmissable fun for all ages, from shake & stir theatre co the award-winning team behind the sold out seasons of Fantastic Mr Fox, Revolting Rhymes & Dirty Beasts and George’s Marvellous Medicine.
You’ve read the book – it’s time to experience this family classic from the wacky mind of the world’s No. 1 Storyteller live on stage.
You won’t believe your (glass) eyes.
BROADWAY WORLD
"Perfect. You and your child do not want to miss this remarkable piece of theatre."
The Sydney Morning Herald
"My six-year-old rates The Twits as the best show she saw last year – and it was in my top five, too. shake & stir are masters at keeping younger audiences entertained."
STAGE WHISPERS
"Honed to perfection. The team behind this production are some of Queensland’s absolute stunners."
