About Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
Soar far above the clouds and across the seas with a fantasmagorical new Watermill Theatre production of the iconic Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
Delve into the hearts and imaginations of eccentric inventor Caractacus Potts, his children Jeremy and Jemima, and Truly Scrumptious as they set off on an audacious adventure in their car with the big personality.
Following three critically acclaimed, sellout summer musicals, this new production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang puts the Watermill’s signature storytelling, inventiveness and imagination at its heart. Experience the much-loved classic songs played live by an ensemble cast of actor-musicians including ‘Truly Scrumptious’, ‘Hushabye Mountain’ and ‘Chitty Chitty Bang Bang’.
Fasten your seatbelts – summer at the Watermill is about to take off!
