An assassination attempt, a disastrous late-in-life marriage and a refusal to grow up all affect Kenneth Grahame's life as he crafts one of Britain's most beloved children's books. But this obsession with childhood eventually leads to the greatest tragedy of Grahame's life.
Lost in the Willows is a poignant, moving and often funny examination of the life and relationships of beloved The Wind in the Willows author Kenneth Grahame.
Written by award-winning playwright Christine Foster ('Four Thieves Vinegar', 'Off the Map') and directed by Margot Jobbins ('Four Thieves Vinegar', 'Mayhem at the Cabaret Voltaire'). Starring Neil James ('God of Carnage'), Abi Mcloughlin ('Confessional'), Robert Cohen ('The Trials of Harvey Matusow') and Laura Fausner ('The Railway Children').
Lost in the Willows is the second collaboration between Margot Jobbins and Christine Foster. In 2019, FourTails Theatre Company brought Christine's "Four Thieves Vinegar" to Rialto Theatre for Brighton Fringe 2019, a production receiving multiple 4-* and 5-* reviews and chosen as one of Fringe Encore's three "Top Picks" of Fringe 2019.
