Hi
THE STORY
Thistle Theatre's production combines two of Beatrix Potter's most beloved stories: “The Tale of Peter
Rabbit” and “The Tale of Benjamin Bunny.” These two stories join together to make one complete
narrative (Peter’s original tale leaves the fate of his jacket unresolved). Additional characters in the
production are from Potter’s “The Tale of Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle” and “The Tale of Mrs. Tittlemouse.” The
script was adapted from the original stories by Thistle Theatre’s Artistic Director, Jean Enticknap.
Synopsis: On a beautiful summer morning, the lovable hedgehog Mrs. Tiggy-Winkle merrily journeys
to the fir tree home of Mrs. Rabbit. She is delivering the freshly-washed clothes of Flopsy, Mopsy,
Cottontail and Peter. Little does she know that Peter is going to wear his clean blue jacket on a
dangerous adventure in Mr. McGregor’s garden!
Thanks
