Disney’s Winnie the Pooh is taking a sweet new adventure to Blackpool Grand Theatre with a beautifully crafted new musical stage adaptation from Monday 14 to Wednesday 16 August 2023.

A.A. Milne’s beloved characters Winnie the Pooh, Christopher Robin and their best friends Piglet, Eeyore, Kanga, Roo, Rabbit and Owl (and Tigger too!) will be live on stage in an enchanting new tale of Hundred Acre Wood, told with stunning life-size puppetry through the eyes of the characters we all know and cherish.

An original score by Nate Edmondson also features some of the Grammy award-winning songs written by the Sherman Brothers for the original animated features – including Winnie the Pooh, The Blustery Day, The Wonderful Thing About Tiggers and Whoop-De-Dooper Bounce, plus A.A. Milne’s The More It Snows (featuring music by Carly Simon) and Sing Ho in a new arrangement.

Inspired by the adored books by A. A. Milne and the classic Disney featurettes, the production was first welcomed in New York in 2021, breaking theatre box office records and receiving rave reviews. The UK premiere of Disney’s Winnie the Pooh will open at London’s Riverside Studios in March and will tour the UK until September 2023.  This exciting new musical is developed and presented by renowned family entertainment creator Jonathan Rockefeller (whose spectacular puppetry appears in the acclaimed productions of The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show and Paddington Gets in a Jam).

“‘What day is it?’ asked Pooh.

‘It’s the day to book the magical stage musical Disney’s Winnie the Pooh,’ squeaked Piglet.

‘My favourite day,’ said Pooh.”
