Guildford Cathedral is delighted to welcome Riding Lights Theatre Company this October for an enchanting production of The Selfish Giant.

Enter the magical world of the Giant’s garden, filled with music, beauty, birdsong and stories.
But the Giant is angry when he returns to find children playing happily in his beautiful orchard.
Every day after school, they laugh and play beneath the blossom trees, until he builds a high wall to stop the fun. Then winter takes hold of the garden in its icy grip…Will summer ever return?

With storytelling, interactive games, live music and puppetry, Riding Lights Theatre Company brings The Selfish Giant to life in a heart-warming family play, ideal for ages 3+, about love and generosity.

Riding Lights Theatre Company creates theatre that makes a difference. For nearly 50 years, the charity has performed in churches, schools, prisons, theatres, streets and communities across the UK. Shaped by a Christian ethos, its work is inclusive, accessible and welcoming to all, inspiring audiences to explore creativity, faith and social justice.

Wednesday 29 October | 11am and 2pm | Running time: 60 minutes.
