When the three orphaned Rawlins children are reluctantly evacuated from wartime London to live with the mysterious Eglantine Price, they have no idea what adventures lie ahead. Upon discovering Eglantine to be a trainee witch, they join forces to search for a secret spell that will defeat the enemy once and for all. Armed with an enchanted bedknob, a bewitched broomstick and a magical flying bed, they encounter surprising new friendships on their journey from Portobello Road to the depths of the beautiful briny sea.

The brass needs some polishing but Dianne Pilkington’s novice witch is a delight and the stunts are magical" iNews "Judged best for under-11s by my daughter, it’s still a likeable show that will leave you with a warm glow." Daily Mail "Bedknobs, adapted for the stage by Brian Hill, is all magic and motion, never for a second settling for anything less than the fantastical."
