Originally staged by York Theatre Royal in 2008, The Railway Children returns to King's Cross Station for an extraordinary production. Starring Sean Hughes, directed by Damian Cruden and staged around a real train track, the story follows a family and an innocent man falsely accused of espionage. The winner of the Olivier Award, it's an adventure of a lifetime and coming aboard is your only way to find out. It’s your last chance to see this stunning adaptation of E Nesbit’s classic novel The Railway Children at London's Kings Cross Theatre. Set in a purpose built 1,000 seat venue with a vintage foyer, this breath-taking show features a stage built around a real train track and a glistening 60-tonne locomotive that will steam into the theatre throughout the Christmas holiday period! Steeped in nostalgia and charm, treat your family to the adventure of a lifetime, and join Bobbie, Peter and Phyllis as they tell the story of how they became The Railway Children. ★★★★ – Evening Standard ★★★★ – Financial Times ★★★★ – Sunday Express Not suitable for children under 2.
