Edinburgh to host live production of popular children's TV show
In the Night Garden, a BBC children's television series aimed at young children, is embarking on a UK-wide stage tour of 40 venues next year.
The company website describes the show as a "magical picture-book place that exists between waking and sleeping in a child's imagination," made up of a diverse community of loveable characters. It says the show will carry children into a "happy and yet calming world of music and nursery rhymes."
