Little and Big Nutbrown Hare are set to leap from page to stage at the Rose Theatre in Kingston.

The children’s book Guess How Much I Love You, by Sam McBratney and Anita Jeram, has been brought to life by David Wood OBE, the UK’s leading writer and director of children’s theatre.

One of the country’s top selling children’s books, a copy is sold every 23 seconds and tells a tale throughout the seasons.

The production, which will run from Wednesday, May 19, to Sunday, May 23, is the beginning of a national tour for the show.

Tickets cost £12 and are available from the box office on 0871 2301552.
