The BFG at the Royal Shakespeare Company

This winter, the Royal Shakespeare Company brings Roald Dahl’s The BFG to life on stage in Stratford-upon-Avon. From 25 November 2025 to 31 January 2026, audiences can step into a world of dreams, giants, and heart as Sophie and her Big Friendly Giant take to the stage in this spectacular family adventure.

Follow Sophie as she’s whisked away to Giant Country, where she befriends the kind-hearted BFG and helps him stand up to his not-so-friendly neighbours. Expect magical sets, clever puppetry, live music, and plenty of Dahl-style humour, a performance that promises to captivate children and adults alike.

Perfect for families, The BFG celebrates courage, friendship, and the power of dreams, all brought to life with the RSC’s trademark imagination and theatrical flair.
