'Enid Blyton - Noddy, Big-Ears and Lashings of Controversy'
Enid Blyton was loved by children. She sold more than 600 million books, despite all her work being banned by the BBC and many libraries and schools for more than thirty years. She was accused of being a racist and of using such limited vocabulary that it actually hindered children’s reading progress. She had an interesting love life and enjoyed playing golf so much that she bought a golf course near Swanage. She died of Alzheimer’s in 1968, aged 71, mourned by millions of readers all over the world.
Actress 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 Enid Blyton’s incredible story. An On A Role production. Not suitable for children.
