Cast announced for the UK tour of Pigs Might Fly from Michael Morpurgo’s Mudpuddle Farm

    Based on the book by Michael Morpurgo, Pigs Might Fly brings the farmyard to life with catchy songs, puppetry, and slapstick humour.

    DEM Productions are delighted to announce the full cast for the musical adaptation of  PIGS MIGHT FLY from Michael Morpurgo’s Mudpuddle Farm with book, music & lyrics by  Caroline Wigmore and Jen Green.

    The show will embark on a UK Tour from 24 May 2023 at Theatre Peckham, with a national press performance on 25 May, and will be directed by Kate Golledge.

    Megan Swaisland (The Hogmoor Troll, 440 Theatre) will star as Pintsize with Rachel Lea-Gray (Pigs Might Fly, 2022 UK Tour, Jungle Rumble, Fortune Theatre) as Farmer Brightwell and Jazz Evans (Claus the Musical, Lowry Manchester, Spamalot UK  Tour) as Farmer Rafferty. 

    This bold and energetic new musical follows the air-raising adventures of Pintsize, the  youngest and most daring piglet on Mudpuddle Farm. Pintsize loves nothing more than  playing with his neighbour and best friend Diana the sheep, until one day Pintsize wakes  up to discover a tall fence built between their two farms. Devastated by the loss of  playtime with his best pal, Pintsize resolves that he will figure out how to fly over it instead.  

    Can his determination and ingenuity defy the laws of physics? Will crotchety Farmer  Rafferty finally make peace with his neighbour, Farmer Brightwell? Can Albertine the  clever goose keep Pintsize from hurting himself as he tries to fly?  

    Based on the book by Michael Morpurgo, PIGS MIGHT FLY brings the farmyard to life with  catchy songs, puppetry, and plenty of frolicsome fun. 

    PIGS MIGHT FLY has choreography by Chris Whittaker (Lady Chatterley’s Lover, Gatsby) and set and costume design by Stewart J Charlesworth (From Here To Eternity, The Dark). 

    PIGS MIGHT FLY is produced by Deus Ex Machina Productions.
