Emil and the Detectives was a lot more enjoyable than I
imagined, even for adults! When Emil is sent alone to visit his Grandmother in
Berlin, the most remarkably enjoyable adventure ensues as he tries to recover
his stolen money.
Toots gives an excellent performance and you can’t help but gush
over the cuteness of the loveable Tuesday. I can only imagine the organsisation
behind this production as over fifty children are involved.
Emil and the Dectectives is a funny, feel good show where good
clearly triumphs over evil – even against the odds of a group of children
trying to bring justice to an adult in the nineteen thirties when, by their own
admission, a child’s word would never been taken over an adult’s. With audience
participation and money falling from the skies this is a great family show with
laughs and engagement for all who attend. I highly recommend a seat in the
stalls!
Emil And The Detectives can be seen @ The National Theatre until 18th March.
