Illyria: Dr Dolittle
31 August - 1 September 2018
31 August - 1 September, Trebah Amphitheatre
When Dr John Dolittle of Puddleby-on-the-Marsh is taught by his wise old parrot Polynesia how to talk to animals word of his skills spreads far and wide.
Soon animals across the world send messages asking for his help. So he buys a leaky old ship and, together with his trusty pet-crew of Jip the dog, Chee-Chee the monkey, Dab-Dab the Duck and permanently hungry Gub-Gub the pig, sets forth on a mission to heal illness, right wrongs and gain a greater understanding of the animal kingdom.
A funny, exciting and much-loved adventure, with a strong message about responsibility towards animals and the environment.
