The BFG is the world’s only friendly giant. He operates in the strictest of secrecy to bring good dreams to the human world, while his nasty counterparts steal and have the despicable habit of eating children. Upon meeting little orphan Sophie through her window, he whisks her away to his home in Giant Country. Together they embark on an adventure to Buckingham Palace to get help from the Queen and save the children from the other giants! Catch 2014’s most nominated theatrical production as it makes its GIANT leap to The National Theatre this Summer! Nominated for eleven Helen Hayes awards; winner of two (Outstanding Set Design, Hayes Production and Outstanding Production, Theatre for Young Audiences)!
“The BFG is a fun puppet adventure for parents and kids! A savory treat for all ages!” ~The Washington Post
“Five stars! Whenever I come across a show this hilarious, clever, and vivacious, I wish our rating scale went higher than a five because I’d give it a 10! The BFG is an absolute Must-See– don’t miss it!” ~DC Metro Theater Arts
