David Walliams’ Bad Dad – Open Air Theatre at Staunton Country Park

Friday 25th August 2023

Performance 6.00pm to 8.00pm approx.

Join us in Storey Gardens for another summer of outdoor theatre fun!

Heartbreak Productions are back for 2023 with Bad Dad, a warm-hearted tale that follows the highs and lows of a father and son relationship as they navigate their way through a world of crime, car chases and convicts!

Written by one of the UK’s most popular children’s authors - David Walliams, “Bad Dad” follows Frank and his father Gilbert as they struggle to escape the clutches of the local crime lord and clear Gilbert’s name.

Frank’s dad, Gilbert, wasn’t always considered a criminal. In fact, to Frank and the locals he was no other than the legendary ‘king of the track’, Gilbert the Great. That is, until a tragic accident puts a stop to his track-racing days. Feeling like he has gone ‘from hero to zero’, Frank’s father becomes tempted by the dark allure of life as a get-away driver.

Gates open at 5pm for you to enjoy your picnic, remember to bring a blanket or chairs as there is no seating at the venue. Refreshments and snacks will be on sale for the duration of the event.
