The Railway Children

The Railway Children
by E. Nesbit
Adapted and directed by Sarah Slator

Join This Is My Theatre for their production of The Railway Children in our beautiful Palace Gardens.

When their father has to leave their London home unexpectedly, Roberta, Phyllis and Peter leave London and travel with their mother to start a new life in rural Yorkshire.

Their love of trains and the nearby railway line lead to new friendships and adventures but the mystery of why their father doesn’t return remains and they must find out and help him come home.

Whilst written more than a century ago, this charming children’s novel still inspires all ages and with folk music throughout, everyone will have their hearts warmed with this captivating adaptation.
