With ten years of chartbusting novels and three Children’s Book of the Year awards – not to mention a BAFTA for Little Britain – David Walliams is a heavyweight children’s author. If you haven’t read one of the 1.2 million copies of Awful Auntie, now is your chance to see the story on stage: fresh from a 15-month UK tour, Birmingham Stage Company brings Awful Auntie to Bloomsbury Theatre.


The story promises frights, fights and friendship, as well as an extremely large owl, an extremely small ghost and an exceptionally awful auntie. When Stella sets off to visit London with her parents, Lord and Lady Saxby, she has no idea of what’s to come. When she wakes up three months later, she finds that the only person who can fill in the gaps is her aunt Alberta. But as Stella soon discovers, her aunt isn’t telling the whole truth and the fight for her life has just started.


From the award-winning West End producers of Walliams’ Gangsta Granny, reviewers have praised Awful Auntie as 'a supremely entertaining night out at the theatre for young families'. It may not be your traditional Christmas tale, but it certainly brings a hearty dose of wackiness to the festive season.
