About My Neighbour Totoro

My Neighbour Totoro is playing at the Gillian Lynne Theatre in London’s West End. This stage adaptation of Studio Ghibli’s 1988 animated film is created in collaboration with Improbable and Nippon TV, with adaptation by Tom Morton-Smith and Executive Producer Joe Hisaishi. The story follows sisters Satsuki and Mei through one summer, combining childhood imagination with live theatre.

The production has won six Olivier Awards and has been described as a record-breaking return to the West End. It has also been praised for its puppetry, music and staging.

Duration: 2 hours 40 minutes, including a 20-minute interval.
