Mrs Armitage is a brilliant and eccentric inventor whose wild and wonderful creations are always remarkably useful.

When she and her faithful dog Breakspear set off on a quiet bike ride to visit cousin Angela, she can’t stop thinking of ways to improve her bike. But after adding horns, snack trays, umbrellas, a dog bed and even a sail, will she ever get there?

Featuring puppetry and live music, this brand-new musical adaptation of the award-winning BBC animated series Quentin Blake’s Box of Treasures, celebrates the power of imagination and the importance of community.

Presented by esk and Roast Productions. Quentin Blake’s Mrs Armitage on Wheels has been developed in association with Eagle Eye and Little Angel Theatre and based on the BBC animated series Quentin Blake’s Box of Treasures, available on BBC iPlayer.
