It has been announced that Wizard Presents' production of I Believe in Unicorns will transfer to the West End's Vaudeville Theatre.
Based on the eponymous book by award-winning children's author Michael Morpurgo, the show will run between 8th and 31st August 2014 following a hugely successful run at last year's Edinburgh Festival Fringe and an Arts Council-supported National Tour.
Michael Morpurgo said: "It is wonderful that a magic unicorn is coming to town, a unicorn like no other. A horse, like War Horse is one thing - also like no other - but a unicorn? No one will believe it until they see it, but a unicorn, once seen, like the horse, like Joey, is always believed."
This utterly magical one-woman show, starring storyteller Danyah Miller, is set in a library full of books which contain more than stories within their pages. It is a tale of the power of books and the bravery of a young boy called Tomas. He loves playing in the mountains and hates reading and school but his world is turned upside down the day he meets the Unicorn and the Unicorn Lady in his local library.
An interactive show that captures the enchantment of storytelling, I Believe in Unicorns sparks the imagination of both children and adults and is suitable for everyone over 5 years old.
