CHITTY CHITTY BANG BANG at The Watermill Theatre, Newbury

26 May – 13 September

Fasten your seatbelts – summer is about to take off!

Soar far above the clouds and across the seas with a fantasmagorical new Watermill Theatre production of the iconic Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

Delve into the hearts and imaginations of eccentric inventor Caractacus Potts, his children Jeremy and Jemima, and Truly Scrumptious as they set off on an audacious adventure in their car with the big personality.

Following three critically acclaimed, sellout summer musicals, this new production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang puts the Watermill’s signature storytelling, inventiveness and imagination at its heart. Experience the much-loved classic songs played live by an ensemble cast of actor-musicians, including ‘Truly Scrumptious’, ‘Hushabye Mountain’ and ‘Chitty Chitty Bang Bang’.
