Transition Town Totnes is proud to bring an interactive community theatre company
performance to Totnes as part of the 20 th Anniversary celebration of Transition
Totnes! Bring your imagination, bring your curiosity, bring your sense of
humour and bring your outrage as we explore the impact of human behaviour
on our beautiful planet.
Troubadour Theatre’s new production, Whose Wild World? invites the audience on a
gentle, entertaining and interactive wander through Leechwell gardens.
Join us to glimpse some unusual goings-on, see Leechwell gardens through a new
lens and meet a host of characters including the budding presenter of a new TV
reality show. Being on location is not going quite as smoothly as our hapless star,
Petunia Wilding and her long-suffering assistant, Violet would like and the rehearsal
set seems to be attracting a variety of unexpected characters!
Expect to laugh, expect to cry, expect to be surprised, expect to care.
“Such an original take on our green future. Accessible to audiences of all ages, entertaining, subversive and fun.”(TURN THE TIDE, 2024)
