"One of my favourite books ... a cult classic"

The RSC website has recently added a host of great content promoting the production, including video interviews with stars Daniel Ryan and Bettrys Jones and director Paul Hunter. There is also a Q&A with Tamsin Oglesby, who comments, "The RSC asked me to find something that I would like to adapt for a family show. I read The Mouse and His Child as a child, but forgot how much I'd loved it till my goddaughter reminded me that I'd given it to her, saying it was one of my favourite books."

Daniel Ryan, who stars in TV show Mount Pleasant, tweeted today: "Thrilled I am to be embarking on our adaptation of Russell Hoban's fantastic work!"

Paul Hunter comments: "The Mouse and His Child has cult classic status I think. It's not that well known and nor is its author but for some people I know it is their favourite book and this is partly what drew me to the project."


The draw closed on 14 November. Good luck to all who entered! The terms and conditions are viewable here for reference
