The Amazing Adventures of Librarian Lil is a show for 5years+ that is bursting with fun and visual fantasy - adventure leaps off the page!
about the production
Librarian Lil has worked in the library for forty-five years and is becoming bored… but she’s about to find that you can’t judge a book by its cover… After the runaway success of last year’s touring show The Case of the Curious Suitcase, the amazing and imaginative Rhubarb Theatre present a new treat for everyone aged 5 and up. Once the books are stamped, the pages start to rustle and Lil is sucked into a whirlwind of words where tales of bravery become reality and every day is a new adventure!
