The Need For Speed Mr Toad Comes To The PEC

The loveable childhood classic, The Wind in the Willows, is coming to the Proserpine Entertainment Centre, in an exciting new theatre production set to impress and entertain the whole family.

Produced by RAVA Productions, The Wind in the Willows follows the charismatic cast of four animals - Moley, Ratty, Badger, and Mr Toad.

Mr Toad becomes obsessed with motor vehicles and has a need for speed, which only leads to danger and reckless behaviour.

Moley, Ratty, and Badger work together to show Mr Toad the errors of his new obsession, however, Mr Toad is shocked from motor cars when a series of wild-wooders invade his beautiful home, Toad Hall, and take up residence.

Now, Mr Toad and his friends must go into battle against these invaders and reclaim Toad Hall.

Exploring the theme of friendship, The Wind in the Willows is a touching story of the need for friendships, or people that are always willing to help in a pinch.

This RAVA Production is directed by Alison Vallette and produced by Ruth Atkinson and is set to keep all members of the audience pinned to their seats with excitement.

With powerful original music and imaginative characterisation, costuming and staging, The Wind in the Willows is fun for the whole family.
