Danny the Champion of the World at Brisbane Arts Theatre

Nine-year-old Danny lives happily in a gypsy caravan with his father, but his world is turned upside down when he learns that his father poaches pheasants from the estate of the malevolent Victor Hazell.

One night his father doesn't return from a poaching run and Danny fears the worst. He sets off on a courageous journey to find his father and, with a little help from the village, soon finds himself masterminding the most incredible and exciting plot ever attempted against Mr. Hazell.

This uplifting adaptation heartily captures Dahl’s inspirational children’s novel.
