Everybody of a certain age has read an Enid Blyton book. She was loved by children but vilified by the BBC, teachers, critics and librarians. She sold more than 600 million books, despite being banned by the BBC, libraries and schools. She was accused of many things including being a racist. Her love-life was interesting and she had numerous affairs including with her children’s nanny. She died of Alzheimer’s in 1968 aged 71, mourned by millions of readers. Liz Grand (previous shows ‘The Second Best Bed’, ‘Where Is Mrs. Christie?’ and ‘Mrs. Churchill – My life With Winston’) plays this remarkable and controversial woman and brings you her story.
This is a stunning show, a tour-de-force, where you will find out all about the secret life of Enid Blyton……you will be surprised, shocked and entertained.
Thursday 25 April 7.30pm | Tickets £17, Friends of the Palace concessions available
This event will take place in STAGE LEFT (adjacent to the Palace Theatre)
