Matthew Warchus, artistic director of The Old Vic, said in a press statement: “Judith Kerr’s wonderful stories are timeless adventures for adults and children alike. It’s been a great treat to work alongside The Wardrobe Ensemble and Royal and Derngate on this terrific adaptation of Mog. The joyful tales of mishaps, family and friendship will undoubtedly enchant audiences next summer at the Old Vic and on tour.”
