Little Lyric 2026 Season Highlights

The Little Lyric 2026 season includes two major main-stage shows and a packed studio programme for younger audiences.

Dear Zoo (2 – 5 March 2026) is perfect for children’s first theatre trip. Meanwhile, The Enormous Crocodile Musical (28 July – 22 August 2026) brings Roald Dahl’s much-loved story to life with puppets and lively tunes.

Additionally, eleven Studio Theatre titles will entertain families between January and March. Highlights include Flyaway Katie, The Littlest Yak, and The Tale of the Loneliest Whale.

Before the new season begins, Father Christmas returns for the 2025 holidays (19 November – 27 December). It’s a festive favourite and a great introduction to Little Lyric magic.
