The Borrowers
Discover a magical hidden world under the floorboards!
Arrietty is an adventurous “Borrower”, secretly living under the floorboards of a country house with her family. This small, but perfectly formed family borrow from the humans above – furnishing their home and fuelling their appetites with their finds.
As Arrietty hits her teenage years, she begins to join her father, Pod, on special borrowing quests. However, the Borrowers have one simple rule: to remain hidden from the “human-beans”.
When an evacuee, a human boy, arrives in the main house, Arrietty becomes curious… and starts making mistakes. This results in the family undertaking an epic journey into the unknown to find a new home.
Arrietty and her family will face many obstacles and dangers as they trek through a land of strange plants and huge creatures. Can they find somewhere they truly belong? What (and who) might they come up against along the way?
Set against a backdrop of Christmas in East Yorkshire during the 1940s Blitz, this enchanting family friendly production explores themes of adventure, friendship and the joy of love and togetherness.
